Why you’ll love this…
  • You'll glide over the waves aboard the Gageiro, a traditional sailing ship from 1947
  • Joao d'Arens is the ideal spot to drop anchor, whether you want to relax on deck or go for a swim
  • You'll feel the thrill of sailing the traditional way, fuelled by wind power
What to expect

Set sail along the Algarve's coast on this evening cruise aboard the Gageiro. This traditional sailing ship, dating back to 1947, is one of the last of its kind, so you're sailing on a piece of Portuguese history.

Cast off from Portimao, heading west along the coast before dropping anchor in Joao d'Arens for a swim. It's a calm and secluded beach with beautifully clear water, but guarantee you'll be busy looking up at the dramatic pink-hued cliffs that line the bay. It's a chilled out setting to tuck into some tasty tapas and sip local wines as you relax on deck here.

Then, it's time for the real adventure. Your crew will raise the sails and switch off the engine, letting the boat be propelled by pure wind power. It's a real thrill to feel how fast Mother Nature can be and gives a timeless feel to the end of your journey. Just so you know, this experience doesn't include transport to or from the port.
