Are you ready for the SUP Algarve's secrets tour?

This SUP Algarve's secrets tour is an amazing way to explore the hidden coastline of southwest Algarve? Stand-up paddleboard (SUP) will give you a unique perspective of the coast of the Algarve and allows you to discover places you would never see on a boat tour.

With pick-ups in between Lagos and Sagres, you will be transferred through the Natural Park to a paradise beach to for the SUP Algarve's secrets tour. Pick-up is free for bookings of 3 or more people, or 15 € for pick-up per booking if 1 or 2 people (drop-off included). Normally, the pick-up is at 9h10 at the Lagos Bus Station but the actual time and meeting point are to be advised after booking the tour.

If you've never tried stand-up paddle boarding before, then you are in for a treat! The guides will show you the basics and all safety techniques on the beach before getting into the sea. Once you feel ready, let’s get into the fresh Atlantic!

All you need to bring is a towel and swimming costume. A lot easier than surfing, you'll soon be standing on boards that are big and stable with a big smile on your face! This SUP Algarve's secrets tour will take you to visit hidden beaches, and venture inside dark caves. Look out for birds above you, and fish below. You will even get the opportunity to try some cliff jumping if desired.

The total duration of this experience varies between 3 and 4 hours (2 to 3 hours in the water).
