About this tour
A 2-hour boat tour through Zimbros Bay to Praia do Cação beach, designed for accessible sightseeing with minimal walking. You'll cruise past four smaller beaches, stop to swim and use the beach trampoline, visit working oyster and shellfish farms, and learn about local marine life. The boat runs without background music and keeps groups small — ideal for families with young children, older travellers, pregnant women, and anyone with mobility concerns, since you board and exit directly onto sand.

What to expect
You'll board a quiet, uncrowded boat and spend roughly 90 minutes cruising Zimbros Bay, passing four beach landmarks as the guide shares information about local marine ecosystems. The boat pulls into Praia do Cação, where you disembark directly onto the beach for a swim and time on the trampoline, plus photos. On the return journey, you'll visit an active oyster and shellfish farm to see cultivation practices up close and learn about the region's seafood.
The entire outing stays educational and relaxed — no rushed pacing or music, and the schedule flexes if weather shifts the swim stop to another location. Infants sit on laps; wheelchairs are accommodated during boarding and exit.
