Discover the birds and nature of the Algarve's Ria Formosa in an Eco-friendly Solar Boat Tour, a unique experience aboard a solar-powered boat from Faro.

This is a 2.5-hour boat tour aboard a solar boat that provides a smooth and quiet ride throughout the route, contributing to the preservation of the natural heritage of Ria Formosa. Leaving from Faro and accompanied by an experienced nature guide who knows very well the area, you will get to know the fauna and flora of this protected area in the Algarve. You will visit the lagoon and marshes of Ria Formosa, watch numerous birds and all the nature and wildlife of this lagoon, without disturbing it.

Ria Formosa is a paradise for nature lovers and your nature guide will introduce you to this enormous diversity to make the most of this experience. Explore canals and marshes to watch birds such as the white stork, little egret, and spoonbill. In the direction of the islands of the Nature Park, you will be able to learn more about the economic activities of shellfish farming where it is possible to find countless birds.

While your instructor explains the importance of this activity for the local population, we head to a paradisiacal place where the lagoon meets the sea. On the way back to Faro, enjoy the silence and the sounds of the surrounding nature in a smooth and silent boat.

This is a unique experience and an environmentally friendly alternative!
