Salt & Sea Ria Formosa offers stylish boat tours around the Ria Formosa natural park. Explore the islands and discover the amazing natural beauty of the area, made up of barrier islands, sandbanks and lagoons of clear, clear water.

The Ria Formosa is a unique and stunningly beautiful stretch of the Algarve coastline. To really appreciate it’s magnificence, it’s best to explore by comfortable boat and with a local guide. That’s what you get with Salt & Sea Tours – and then some.

A family run business, with team members who spent their childhood summers on the islands of Farol, Armona and Culatra and sailing these waters, Salt & Sea offers all the local insights you could want, allied with style and quality of a modern fleet of boats and top notch service. Their catamaran “Feel Good” will do just that - make you feel good. It’s a sleek and modern boat with a capacity for 18 people – perfect for family groups and celebrations. The speedy RIB is ideal for island hopping and Salt & Sea Ria Formosa offers a great hop-on hop-off service. The RIB is also used for heading out to sea to search for dolphins in the wild. Their trips round the Ria Formosa waters are among the best boat tours in the Algarve.

The Ria Formosa is a magical place for many people. Salt & Sea add to the enchantment by adding that extra level of service. The “Feel Good” has wi-fi on board, music system, a bar and kitchenette, as well as 3 cabins for overnight stays. Fresh oysters, harvested from the local oyster beds, can be served on board, washed down with some Laurent Perrier champagne. A private lunch at a secluded beach restaurant can be arranged on one of the islands or a private chef can come aboard.

Salt & Sea Ria Formosa tours depart from Olhão (see the map) and from Faro at the Clube Naval.
