My husband and I had the most amazing 3 hour tour with Pedro and Adriana. Small group and we climbed up and down cliffs, snorkelled caves and crawled into beautiful caverns. S uch a different tour with guides who obviously love what they do and their local environment.
Well done to our guides.

Pedro and Adrianna provided a wonderful snorkel and cave exploration. It was so much more than I expected, from the explanations of rock and cave formations, to crawling into hidden caves, and the sea life we saw.

We had an unforgettable experience on this trip. Our guides were friendly and made the experience really special. They were knowledgeable and we felt they had a passion for sharing the geology and wildlife with us. They went the extra mile, they dove down and found things we might not have seen such as sea cucumbers and pointed out other things such as large crabs. We were able to venture to caves seldom seen by others and we really enjoyed journeying to them. It was very exciting to take a path less travelled or commando crawl under a gap to a new cave. I’d also like to thank them for looking after my daughter who didn’t feel confident to start. By the second half of the trip she was completely happy to go it alone.
Thank you so much.

Very nice snorkeling and caves experience. Awesome guide who's name was Pedro. It is sad that ocean is covered with sea weed time to time. It affects the quality of this beautiful snorkeling place.

It was a great adventure from start to finish. Our guides were so patient to all who were in our group. They made us believe in ourselves. They encouraged us all and always checked in with us that we were doing ok. Really amazing experience

Fantastic experience snorkeling with two amazingly caring, experienced and knowledgeable guides! Couldn’t have been better. They were attentive, courteous, friendly, and super knowledgeable. Highly recommend this snorkeling tour in the beautiful Algarve!

My son (12 y.) and I, booked in the last day our vacation this amazing adventure. Although we had no experience in snorkeling, it was one of the highlights our holiday. This two very dedicated guys, Inês and Pedro, teach us very careful and show us the amazing sea life, swimming in an small group throughout rocks and caves. This sport seems maybe not so good as diving, but is enjoyable, not so complicated, without major risk and they pay always attention at your security. We always made the steps with small breaks to avoid to get too tired. At the end, Pedro prepare us a small Picknick with fruits and cookies on the beach, while Inês showed us the pictures with fishes, shell-fishes and marine invertebrates living in this ocean area, telling a little bit about them.
A perfect atmosphere and a great way to finish our holiday.

Great guides and experience for family with kids ( that can swim). Secret beach is beautiful and. Closing with some small bites at the beautiful beach.

A wonderful experience to be snorkelling close to the rocks and inside the cave.
The gear was of a very good quality.
The crew was very professional and kind. Lots of information about the history of the place, the vegetation, fish and little animals clinging to the rocks made this trip even more worthwhile.
All this in very good ambiance and energy.
Looking forward to meet Pedro and his crew again for another amazing nautic experience.
Até breve!

The guides are very skilled, the secret cave is just AMAZING, and the feeling of leaving the beach swimming and entering that incredible scenery is something we will never forget!
With their help, we saw starfish, sea cucumbers and many other species of local fauna and flora. We also saw fossils and even submerged cannons resulting from a shipwreck in modern times !!
We swam through large schools of sardines: D
So ... we are VERY happy with this experience, we can only recommend to everyone to feel it too. You will win your day, just like it happened to us :)
And last but not least, you'll have pictures to remember later, with nothing to worry about.
Inês and Pedro have all the merit that we can give them! Lucky you both! <3

Nos deux ados de 15 ans ont vécu cette magnifique expérience du snorkeling dans l'Océan. Ils ont été enchanté de la gentillesse , des conseils, de la qualité du matériel utilisé et des choses merveilleuses qu'ils ont vu. RDV sur la superbe Praia de caneiros. Ils ont aussi reçu de superbes photos de leur exploration. A faire et à refaire sans hésitation. Excellent rapport qualité-prix. Les mesures sanitaires sont parfaitement respectées. Merci
