What to expect
For guests who are new to stand up paddleboarding or prefer calmer water than the open coast, our SUP Beginner Tour explores the Ria Formosa near Faro and Tavira. The lagoon's sheltered channels make it a gentle, forgiving place to learn.
We also run our environmental clean-up work here, clearing plastic pollution from the Ria Formosa during tours and dedicated events, so you're supporting that effort simply by joining us.
