About this activity
Ria Formosa National Park: Kayak Trip puts you in a kayak so you can paddle into the smaller caves that the bigger boats pass by. It leaves from Faro area, so you are close to the Ria Formosa lagoon and the walled old town before anything starts. There are morning and afternoon departures, so it slots around the rest of a day. Prices start at β¬50.15 per person, and we list every seller carrying it side by side so you can see who is cheapest today.
Paddling gets you into the smaller caves and coves that larger boats have to pass by, and you set your own pace along the cliffs.
The activity itself runs for about 3 hours, and you should allow roughly 3 hours 15 minutes in total once travel to and from the meeting point is counted. You meet at Faro area. It is run in English and Portuguese.
