Sunset Tour with Oyster Tasting in Ria Formosa

The Ria Formosa Natural Park is famous for its golden sunsets, tranquil waters, and rich traditions. Now, imagine combining all of this with an exclusive oyster tasting on board your private catamaran.

Perfect for families, friends, or couples, this full-day private tour welcomes groups of up to 14 guests. Departing from Faro, your journey takes you across the lagoon’s breathtaking islands and sandy beaches. Along the way, enjoy stops to swim in crystal-clear waters, relax on deck, or try stand-up paddleboarding (SUP).

The route is flexible and always tailored to your preferences. Sail towards the peaceful Ilha da Barreta (Deserta Island) to unwind by the sea, or, if conditions allow, head into the ocean for a chance to spot playful dolphins.

The highlight of your day? An authentic Algarve oyster tasting served on board, featuring the freshest local oysters paired with stunning views of the Ria Formosa. A true feast for the senses, blending nature, flavor, and unforgettable memories.
