Description
Meet your guide, have a free coffee and begin your stand-up paddleboarding adventure! The sunrise tour is our favourite as there are no boats, kayaks or other tours in the water. This is a calm-water, exploration-focused experience suitable for complete beginners as well as experienced paddlers. No pressure to stand up!
A hands-on briefing gets you comfortable on the board before you set off. From there, paddle past dramatic cliffs and secret beaches, through tunnels and sea caves only reachable by water and past cliffside spots with ancient dinosaur footprints. Stop for a swim at an empty, exclusive beach along the way.
Every tour includes all equipment, full insurance, and secure storage for belongings while you're on the water. Your guide César is a certified instructor (IPDJ Portugal, ASI Instructor) and speaks English, Spanish, and Portuguese. Our photographer speaks English, Norwegian, Swedish, and Danish.
Tours run in small groups of max 8 people.
