About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- 625siemd0 contributionsThe way to explore caves and coastline of LagosWe had a great sunrise SUP experience. Our instructor/guide Nelson went to great length to make pictures (100+ !!!) of the whole trip and to tell a lot about the caves, wildlife. We highly recommend it!Written August 5, 2024
- Irina1989Switzerland0 contributionsAmazing SUP tour!We did the 3h SUP tour with Nelson and we highly recommend it!! Nelson had a lot of background information on the caves and has a lot of patience with beginners :) it was definitely one of our highlights being in Portugal!!Written May 5, 2024
- B6862OPlynnec0 contributionsSpectacular!We did a first tour with Nelson around Sagres coastline. It was the first time we had done SUP but he made it so easy - great, concise explanations of how to paddleboard and we were quickly able to get the hang of it. The tour round the caves was an amazing experience, so much so, that we decided to do it all over again 2 days later. This time we did a sunrise SUP tour around the caves near Lagos. The two tours were wonderful. A highlight of our holiday and Nelson and Klara were superb professionals who made the experience so easy and memorable. Nelson knows the area and caves and conditions very well so we felt safe at all times. He took wonderful photos too which are all available for free after the tour. A definite must and to be repeated!Written September 12, 2023
- BerryB0 contributionsReally enjoyable morning exploring the coastlineWe really enjoyed our morning paddle boarding and exploring a peaceful and beautiful part of the coastline. Our guide made sure we knew all the safety aspects for paddle boarding and paced our tour so that although we fitted in a lot we also had time to soak up the experience of being in the caves and to look around and appreciate our surroundings. Our teens really enjoyed jumping off a rock into the sea and we all swam into a smaller cave without the paddleboards too. As a group with mixed paddle boarding experience it suited us all. Thank you for a fun outing!Written August 29, 2023
- Traveler406041115580 contributionsGreat SUP tour!Tour was incredible. Nelson and Clara were super helpful and took us to the best spots!! 100% recommended.Written August 26, 2023
- JYarba0 contributionsNelson The GreatThis was me and my teen sons' first experience with stand-up paddleboarding (which was 99% sit-down paddleboarding in my case). Our guide, Nelson, was incredibly patient with us and a great instructor for the boys. The experience itself is something you can't get any other way except with small conveyances like paddleboards and kayaks--a journey into and through some of the smaller limestone sea cliffs around Raposeira. Nelson took great pictures with his camera and e-mailed them to me within 48 hours. Please be aware that the business does not have a bathroom or shop, so you'll need to take care of business before you go and carry your own water. Coastline provided the wetsuits, which were needed in the frigid May waters. This was a highlight of our trip and I would recommend it to anyone. Obrigado, Nelson!Written July 29, 2023
- JoJeSa0 contributionsFullday tour was amazingFullday tour with in the morning the Sup tour and in the afternoon the Coasteering was perfect. The Kids(14,16 and 18) enjoyed it enormously. Thanks for the great experience.Written July 15, 2023
- fitz99Scotland0 contributionsSpectacular day outThis was a brilliant, well organised, safe tour with Nelson & Clara . We had near perfect conditions and the views, caves and water were spectacular . Have SUP'd before in Portugal but this was a thousand times better . Our 9 year old came too and shared a board with his Dad . We had a brilliant day and will come again next year . Thank youWritten July 7, 2023
- nic12345678900000 contributionsBeautifulOur first sup standing experience could not be better! Thanksa lot to Nélson and Clara, you have been so nice and kind...good vibes and relaxed atmosphere. We enjoyed a lot, we discovered the coast from another point of view!Written July 4, 2023
- Kyleen1230 contributionsImpressive and funThe whole tour was amazing.The views are breathtaking,the paddling is fun and the coaches are absolutely pleasant and likable.Written July 1, 2023
- V8474OXbenjaminb0 contributionsGenuinely amazing experience.I would 100% recommend stand up paddle boarding with Nelson, he's friendly, knowledgeable and fun. The Coastline at Lagos is honestly stunning and I'm sure we saw more on a SUP than you would have done by boat. We were lucky that we didn't come across anyone else for the full tour meaning that it was just us, Nelson and the caves, magical. I was a holiday rep for quite a few years and have been lucky enough to do MANY excursions and I would say this is one of the best I've ever done. Thanks for giving us the best day of our holiday.Written May 25, 2023
- P1189YGjot0 contributionsThe highlight of our tripThis was the highlight of our trip. Nelson is the original coasteering guide that took this activity to the Algarve from Wales and he is the one that trained most of the other guides of the similar organisations that are offering this activity. As a result he has incredible knowledge about the sport but also, since he is from the area, enormous knowledge about the sea life you will explore during the trip. This activity was slightly outside my comfort zone but Nelson made us all feel very safe and as a result we went beyond what we imagined would be possible ito cliff height jumps!Written April 30, 2023
- ReeceCox0 contributionsBest day everWent to this for my 23rd birthday and it was absolutely great. The tour guide was very friendly and talkative. The jumps went from 1-10 metres. It all involved climbing up the cliffs. Jumping off the cliffs and swimming in the ocean to the next jump. Even a little swim into a cave passage. The tour guide was super patient with everybody. Didn’t push you to do something you didn’t want to do. It truly was something special and will be a day I remember forever. The people I did it with also made the day amazing. Thanks again for the experience.Written March 12, 2023

What a great time! We went with a group of 9, 7 in our group and another couple. All were adults and pretty fit. Ample sizes and options of wet suits and equipment were available for all body types and they take great care of their equipment! Once you suit up you head down to the cliffs and start with some easy jumps to get the hang of it. As you work your way around the coast there are series of jumping/swimming/climbing back up & doing it again. I would recommend a decent fitness level for this; mostly due to the amount of climbing out of the water onto the limestone. Some of the rocks can be sharp to grab ahold of to pull yourself up, so be careful and the guide points out the tougher areas.
No one needs to jump from the higher points if you have fears (maybe half of our group did the higher jumps); but we all had a great time! It was a good work-out and a super fun time. Nestor was very friendly and knowledgeable of the area and safety needed to take care of us!

This is must do trip when you’re in Lagos. Nelson made the trip fun and exciting and does not push you past your limits. The tour is physical as you are hiking, climbing, swimming, and jumping as you make your way down the beautiful coast line. The gear you are provided is quality and makes the trip comfortable as the water was cold.

We booked this adventure for my husband and 4 boys (20-15yrs). They all said it was the best thing they’ve ever done!! The guides were incredible. So knowledgeable of the local environment, landscape, and knew the area like the back of their hand. The swimming, cliff jumping, and cave exploring were incredible! Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun adventure (I had to miss due to a wrist injury, but was told that the cliff jumping was for all levels of adventure)

Knowledgable local guide with a wonderful assistant, perfectly curated path along the coastline with jumps that got progressively higher. The wetsuits and other gear were essential - the water is freezing. Although Nelson points out that it isn't only about the cliff jumping he has a tyrannical method of pressuring you to jump with impatience, frustration and passive aggressive warnings. Coasteering in general is an amazing experience and I would recommend this activity to anyone that enjoys water activities and nature.

Hi Shanica
Thanks for your time in writing this review. I'm happy to know you had an amazing experience!
I'm sorry if you felt pressured to jump, but the jumps are all optional, like I always point out, you never have to do something that you're not comfortable with.
However, our safety rules are: you can't skip the medium jumps if you want to make the big 10 meter jump. We need to make sure everyone can jump and land safely and straight before trying the big jumps, and you just wanted to go straight to the top of the cliff (10m) without jumping the 5, 6, and 8 meter jumps, saying that you've been cliff jumping all your life and that you didn't want to climb back up many times. I had to explain again our safety rules, but still you skipped the 5m jump, then you skipped the 8m jump and then you jumped the 10m into the cave.
The cliff jumps you did all went well, but I think everyone can understand why you can't just go to the top of a cliff and jump off without buiding up to it.
Thanks again for coming.
Nelson

Fantastic experience, one of the highlights of the holiday. Nelson, our guide, was amazing - my partner was a little anxious about certain parts of the trip and he was very helpful and was good for paying special attention and making sure we were doing okay. Would strongly recommend for anyone in the area who’s looking for something a bit different to try.

We had a great day, with lots of fun in beautiful surroundings. Our kids, age 15&17 enjoyed all the different jumps and challenges. It was very easy to choose different jumps depending on how high you wanted to jump. In addition Nelson knowledge of the ocean and life in the water was very interesting.

This was the highlight of our trip to portugal. There were 8 of us (4 teenagers and their parents - the youngest was actually 12). We chose the "kids coasteering" which was perfect as i gather it is more cliff jumping and less swimming and hiking compared to the regular coasteering trip. In advance of our experience we emailed our sizes so nelson and Clara were ready with helmets and wetsuits and shoes on the day. When we checked in they drove us out to a remote area with an absolutely stunning shoreline. We hiked, cliff jumped and swam into caves. We started with smaller jumps (2 meters) and got up to about 8m for those who dared. Nelson and Clara were extremely kind and patient if any of us hesitated and they were also very encouraging. The whole experience was fantastic - breathtaking surroundings, lots of physical activity and a big adrenaline rush - You have to be fit and healthy to scramble up the rocks. Only suggestion would be to take a 10 minute break half way through with water and snacks for kids. But it was perfect and we loved all the photos and videos they sent us afterwards. CAnnot recommend enough. Also there were always smaller jumps for anyone that didn't want to attempt the big drops. Thank you Nelson and Clara! We had so much fun and slept really well that night!

My son Oscar, 13 was looking for adventure and fun. He is an adrenaline junkie and full of energy so when a friend told us about cliff jumping, I knew it would be the perfect activity. Nelson was friendly, and a great communicator before, during and after. I was expecting to have to pay additional money to get the photos and videos, but that was included! Great value, 2.5 hours of excitement, he saw sea slugs, starfish, crabs and lots of fish in the beautiful caves and completed lots of jumps including an 11m jump with the tide being so low. We absolutely love the photos and videos, Oscar was grinning from ear to ear when I picked him up. It was so good that Oscar went a second time, and also took his sister with him. We will be back next year, and I would highly recommend Coastline Algarve to anyone looking for something to do with teens, or adults looking for adventure.

We had the most amazing time on this tour. Our guide Nelson was so humble, knowledgeable and experienced at what he does. The day was absolutely stunning and he picked the best route for us to experience considering the large swell weather. The route we did started with some small cliff jumps to introduce us to the tour, followed by walking along the cliffs coastline at sea level, swimming in the ocean, catching waves, exploring the nature within the cliffs rockpools, swimming into the caves and ending with a huge 10m cliff jump into a cave. Nelson made us feel safe at all times and was encouraging and supportive. This was one of the best tours we have done in Europe this Summer. Thank you to Nelson!! We highly recommend this tour!!

We made the kids coasteering tour with Nelson. The kids were 10,12 and 14 years and had loads of fun in this tour. Also for the parents the jumps up to 8 meters were challenging enough! Nelson is originally from the region and knows literally every rock. We always felt 100% safe and can strongly recommend the tour!
