We actually went twice with this company during our holiday, The crew and ladies on the kiosk are all very nice and they transport you in a people carrier back to Alvor once trip has ended. The crisps, watermelon and alcohol went down very well after a swim in the sea! Good value for money. The first time we went... more

Myself, my wife and 3 daughters did the Coastal Trip for approx. 3 hours. We were welcomed on board by Roisin and her crew. Bucks Fizz for the adults and as much soft drinks for the children as well as watermelon and crisps. Roisin and Luis were very informative with any questions we had and included the children in everything.... more

This is without doubt a great way to spend half / full day. The staff were more than helpful and the priority for them was to make sure everyone enjoyed the morning. The skipper and crews local knowledge and fishing experience made the trip . Seems to be more than a business to them, more like a passion. more

Everything from booking to boarding was enjoyable with Portuguese and English speaking staff (and a bit of other languages too i think!) who go out of their way to make your trip comfortable and... more
