We chartered a boat in Lagos and had an amazing time on the water. The coastline is stunning — we cruised past sea caves, swam in crystal-clear water, and used the paddleboards to explore quiet coves.

Lagos and its cost is beautiful, such a different landscape. Well worth a view from a costal cruise.

Our family of 5 had a brilliant time on this private charter. Charlie was an excellent skipper and host full of info and chat taking us to some beautiful spots for swimming and snorkelling. Great value for money and highly recommend!

Where do I begin? The exceptional hospitality from Vitor and Gabrielle, whose warm smiles and welcoming demeanor set the perfect tone for our journey, or the remarkable experience our family of six enjoyed on this cruise? The combination of attentive service, safety, and engaging activities made this trip truly unforgettable. The cruise was both informative and enjoyable, offering something for everyone. If you're seeking a memorable voyage, this is undoubtedly the one to choose. Highly recommended.

River area within ria formosa is absolutely sufficient for a nice boating day. Lot to see and no need to drive on the open ocean. Low tide times are best.

We recently chartered a boat for a couple hours , and I have to say, it was an overall great experience. From start to finish, everything was perfect. Leo, our host, was simply fantastic. He went above and beyond to make sure everyone felt comfortable and safe throughout the day.
What really stood out was the personal touch. One of our group members wasn’t confident in the water, and Leo kindly gave them a private swimming lesson in the ocean.
On top of that, Leo provided drinks throughout the trip, which kept us refreshed and happy. The boat itself was beautiful and well-maintained, and the scenery was just breathtaking.
An awesome bonus was that Leo had two stand-up paddle boards (padel boards) on board, which was a great addition to the experience.
Compared to some of the other boat charters we looked at, this was fantastic value for money. We left feeling like we got so much more than we expected, and the personalised service made all the difference. Highly recommend this charter!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Our day on the boat was truly the highlight of our trip! The crew was exceptional — they allowed us to tailor the itinerary to what we wanted to see and suggested wonderful spots along the way. We stopped several times to swim and jump into the ocean, which made the experience even more memorable.
The paddle board and snorkeling equipment were fantastic additions, and it was such a treat to have everything provided for us. It genuinely felt like we had our own private boat with two amazing captains taking care of every detail.
The lunch prepared on board was absolutely delicious, and we appreciated being able to bring our own beverages. Everything about the day was perfect — relaxing, fun, and beautifully organized. We couldn’t recommend this experience more highly!

Bruno was patiently informing us about the areal structure of the Ria and gave us a map for further guidance. Really appreciated that since we were never doing a ride there. It was a great trip on the Ria Formosa with the RIB and everything ran smooth. He gave us a hint for a faboulous sightseeing at Culatra and we had a wonderful view to that habitat. We sure gonna lease another boat at out earliest convenience. Thanks much Bruno for an unforgettable day.
Warm Regards

Lilly gave us a truly unique and unforgettable experience that we couldn’t have had with anyone else. From the moment we stepped on her boat, she made us feel welcome and completely at ease. She shared her incredible sailing knowledge and years of experience at sea, turning the trip into both a fun adventure and a learning experience. It was so special to discover more about the wind, the sea, and the art of sailing while exploring such a stunning region with someone who knows all its best spots.

We had the absolute pleasure of spending six magical hours aboard Grace, hosted by the incredible Charlie and Larissa — and it was, without a doubt, one of the highlights of our time in Portugal.
From the moment we stepped aboard, their warmth and hospitality made us feel completely at ease. Grace is a stunning boat—immaculately kept, beautifully styled, and perfectly named. She glides effortlessly along the coast, and with Charlie at the helm and Larissa effortless charm, we felt like we were in the best possible hands.
Sailing around the breathtaking coastline of Lagos as the sun began to dip into the horizon was nothing short of spectacular. Every detail was thought through—from the delicious snacks and drinks, to the carefully curated route showcasing hidden coves, dramatic cliffs, and sparkling waters.
Charlie and Larissa strike the perfect balance of being professional, relaxed, knowledgeable, and genuinely fun. Their passion for sailing, the sea, and hosting guests shines through in everything they do. Whether you want to swim, sip rosé, snap photos, or simply soak up the views, they’re the perfect duo to make your time on the water feel special.
If you’re thinking about booking a boat experience in Lagos—don’t hesitate. Grace is pure grace by name and nature, and Charlie and Larissa are the dream team. We’ll be talking about this sunset sail for years to come.

Another fantastic day aboard Nautigirl! Max and Peter are perfect hosts and the boat is gorgeous. We loved cruising down the beautiful coastline, swimming off the back, paddle boarding off the back, having a few drinks and relaxing! Boat days are always the best days! We loved it!
