Lagos, Algarve: Private Boat to Ponta da Piedade, Max 4 Guests

About this experience

Enjoy the Algarve coastline on your own private boat, with a maximum of four guests and no strangers on board. It’s a personal setting that’s perfect for couples, celebrations with friends, family reunions or romantic escapes, and every itinerary is tailored to your wishes.

Cruise along the golden cliffs, arches and sea caves of Ponta da Piedade, explore small hidden beaches by paddleboard, swim from the bathing platform, or simply relax on the sun loungers on the bow and take in the view. Your experienced local skipper knows the coast well and will shape the trip around what you want.

A lunch buffet with drinks is included, along with paddleboards, snorkels and other water toys, so all you need to bring is your swimwear.

We operate year-round. Thanks to the closed cabin on board Poseidon X, you can enjoy a private charter in comfort even on cooler winter days, with shelter from wind and spray and a cosy dining area inside.

Itinerary and highlights

Cruise slowly along the golden cliffs, natural arches and sea caves of Ponta da Piedade, one of the most spectacular coastlines in Europe. Your guide will share local knowledge and stop at the best viewpoints for photos.

Drop anchor at a quiet bay or beach that can only be reached by sea, such as Praia dos Pinheiros, depending on conditions. Swim from the bathing platform, explore the coastline by paddleboard, snorkel in clear water, or relax on the sun loungers while the lunch buffet and drinks are served.
