Sobre
-
O Lago do Alqueva é o maior lago artificial da Europa. Ao mesmo tempo, é um dos mais silenciosos. Ficaremos a conhecer a história do Lago e os impactos que trouxe para a região. A calma de que podemos usufruir, juntamente com a paisagem envolvente, tornam este programa numa experiência única. Nos dias de maior calor os mergulhos são "obrigatórios". Possibilidade de parar em aldeia ribeirinha ou numa das praias fluviais (dependendo do número de horas contratadas).
