          The octopus experience.
          This was a great experience. We saw several octopuses and plenty of fish, including parrot fish, and other sea creatures. We have been snorkeling in various countries and have seen turtles, sting rays, and dolphins, but never octopuses before, so we were thrilled! The guide was friendly and very knowledgeable and we felt safe throughout. We highly recommend it.

          Nice kayak tour
          Nice kayak tour with friendly guide. Had booked for Ilhéu de Cal and was put in Zimbralinho tour instead, but this was a nice trip too. Enjoyed the stopover at beach, and guide took good care of safety of group.

          Excellent!
          We booked the snorkeling tour as part of our honeymoon. Our guide was very entertaining and knowledgable at the same time and we could sense that he really cares about marine wildlife and its protection. And he takes very good pictures with the underwater camera! Overall, absolutely recommandable and a great experience.

          a lovlely activity in Porto Santo
          its a great activity to do in Porto Santo, whether alone, or with family/friends. Quite lovely how much wildlife you can see in a relatively small area, worth booking. Photo attached, taken by our guide, Mattias.

          Amazing snorkeling tour Porto Santo
          Today we took the snorkeling tour with our family. We all enjoyed the tour very much. Incredible views under the water and we have seen beautiful octopus and a lot of other fish. The guide was very professional and knowledgeable about the under water world. We really recommend this snorkeling tour to everyone visiting the island of Porto Santo

          Fantastic experience
          We had a very pleasant time with our guide Matias Not only a wise and very funny guide, but a respectful of Nature's wonders. Hé has also a large knowledge of your island history. We saw plenty of fishes, starfishes, and even 2 octopusses for a long time thé octopuss has even touched Matias' dog paws with no harm. Fantastic snorkeling morning! Thank you again !!

          Nice kayak tour
          Went with two adults and two kids (10 and 16). We all enjoyed the tour. The guide took good care of us and showed us several nice caves. We could kayak into them and have a look around. The halfway point was a secluded beach where went on land. We went for a short swim and jumped off a cliff into the sea. All in all a great way to spend a morning.

          Great snorkeling adventure
          We went on a snorkeling tour with Matias. It was a great experience. He brought us to a secluded bay where we could snorkel in undeep water protected from the waves. We saw a lot of fish, octopus and starfish. We highly recommend going.

          Fantastic guide and great snorkling
          We had an amazing Snorkling trip in the morning, saw a few octopuses, starfish, crabs, and many beautiful little fish. The guide was on time, focused very much on safety and did a great job in teaching, showing us good spots, with a sauce of humor and accompanied by his very nice and super calm dog. A must do if you are in Porto Santo!

          Kayak with wife
          Very nice experience, beautiful caves and cliffs. Tour is very helpful. It was my second time on kayak at all so I think it’s not for experts but REMEBMER it’s open ocean with rocks underwater on coast, could be dangerous!

          Amazing experience!
          The snorkeling experience was exactly what we expected and glad we booked it. Our guide was on time, provided great instructions before hitting the water. Our guide did a great job handling slightly difficult guests which provided its own source of entertainment. His experience in these situations was apparent and did it was grace . Our guide companion dog was great addition to the whole experience We saw some amazing sea creatures including an octopus! Highly recommend taking this tour.

        Fantastic tour of the island, learning about more than just pirates and corsairs.

        Took us from one end to the other to see some spectacular views and history.
        Nuno the guide was brilliant, very knowledgeable and good fun. We took our 4 and 7 year old kids and they managed to keep entertained the whole way so must be good!

        Thank you Nuno and thank you Porto Santo!

        Great tour around the island. Nice to know more about what makes this island unique, and to find a little bit more about the importance of Porto Santo in the Portuguese history.

        Too bad we can't give zero stars. Reading the reviews, it was a good experience, too bad that we were notified 1 hour and a half before that they had canceled our reservation without providing any explanation, despite the fact that until the day before the activity was still available. A real disappointment, if we had been warned earlier, we would have booked something else...
