Our 7-hour private sailing charter aboard the elegant Beneteau Oceanis 41.1 is designed for those who appreciate the tranquility, grace, and authenticity of true sailing. Departing from the Marina de Portimão, this full-day journey trades the roar of engines for the gentle sound of waves and the snap of the sails.

🧭 Your Bespoke Sailing Itinerary

Option 1: The Eastern Route (The Cave Coast) Sail toward the sunrise. We navigate the stunning cliffs of Carvoeiro, passing the “Smugglers’ Caves” and the Arade River mouth. We’ll visit the iconic Benagil area and drop anchor at Praia da Marinha—perfect for a long lunch and an afternoon of snorkeling among the limestone arches.

Option 2: The Western Route (The Golden Arches) Head west toward the historic city of Lagos. Experience the breathtaking beauty of Ponta da Piedade, where the golden rock spires meet the deep blue Atlantic. Explore the crystal-clear waters of Praia do Camilo and the vast, tranquil bay of Alvor, a paradise for those who love quiet, open waters.

On a 7-hour charter, the boat becomes your private home on the water. Whether you want to learn the basics of sailing from our skipper or simply lie back on the deck with a glass of chilled wine, this tour offers a level of relaxation that motorboats simply cannot match.
