Guidekin's take
An hour on a catamaran timed for the sunset over the Ria Formosa lagoon, with the skipper doubling as local guide.
It is a short, relaxed sail rather than an island visit, and food and drinks are not provided. 4.97 from 843 reviews at €30 per person.
Best for: The highest rated boat here with a real base behind it, 4.97 from 843 reviews at €30 per person, for one hour on a catamaran as the light goes over the lagoon. Faro comparison
Trade-off: An hour on the water and nothing more.
