Coastal River Journey & Dining with Coast Beach Chill

Duration

7 hours

About

Departing Lagos Marina we head up the historic river taking in the sights & out into the Atlantic Ocean, heading East towards Alvor’s beautiful beaches & rock formations. Then hugging the stunning coastline along Praia da Rocha & into the Arade river that separates Portimao & Ferragudo & leads to the medieval town of Silves. Passing three of Portimao’s marinas & under many bridges we wind our way up the river until Silves can been seen a few miles further on in the distance & our destination reveals itself tucked away on the riverside. Mooring right outside the restaurant you are just a few steps from your table. Here you can kickback & enjoy a relaxing long lunch with Ivan on the grill & Ana & her team making sure you don’t go thirsty. Ivan’s rustic style Portuguese dishes are some of the best I’ve tasted, everything tastes fantastic, the menu changes daily to accommodate fresh local produce & ingredients. It’s time to leave when the tide is dropping, heading back down the river where we can drop anchor near the beach of Ferragudo or at one of our other favourite anchorages so you can swim from the boat or just relax with a chilled drink of two, then heading back across the bay of Lagos to the marina where you can choose one of the great bars & restaurants to enjoy a sundowner cocktail. Does not include lunch (approx €55pp).
