Natura Algarve is a Faro-based operator specializing in guided boat tours and private charters in the Ria Formosa Natural Park. The company offers a diverse range of experiences departing from Faro and Olhão, including short sunset sails, wildlife-focused trips, barrier island explorations, and tailor-made private cruises. Trips include intimate 1-hour sunset boat tours limited to 11 guests, longer small-group excursions to Armona, Culatra and Farol islands, 3.5-hour Natura Tour visits with swims at sandbars, and dedicated dolphin-watching departures with an expert guide.
Natura Algarve operates comfortable catamarans and speedy RIB boats to suit relaxed cruises and active marine excursions. It highlights traditional shellfish farming visits on Culatra Island, opportunities to swim at secluded sandbars in warmer months, and birdwatching trips that showcase species such as white stork and greater flamingo. Romantic private cruises feature coastal sunset views, island stops, chilled vinho verde, and light treats for couples.
Group options serve special events including birthday parties, stag/hen celebrations, and private corporate outings, with bespoke itineraries and exclusive charters available. Several experiences emphasize small groups and privacy, while others invite guests to explore the wider Ria Formosa lagoon and barrier islands for beach walks and local cuisine.
Natura Algarve is based in Faro and Olhão and focuses on delivering accurate local commentary, comfortable vessels, and responsible visits to a protected wetland environment. Booking flexibility and private options allow customization for duration, catering, and special requests, enabling tailored experiences for couples, families, birdwatchers, and corporate groups throughout the year with attentive local hosts.
