★★★★★★★★★★3.2 · 8 reviews · 2 hours · from $73

Review of Sal’s 2-hour catamaran cruise with drinks, snacks, music, swimming near Monte Leão, pickup, and practical booking advice.

“All staff were very friendly and preformed a dance routine for entertainment. There were only two choices of drinks, Prosecco or beer. The atmosphere on board was lovely and relaxing, there were however to many people for the size of the boat. We had extra time on the trip than advertised which was good, although the waters we stopped at weren’t anything special so not many people swam.”
