Boat rental morning in the Algarve

BOAT RENTAL FOR MORNING IN THE ALGARVE from Vilamoura Marina with a choice to discover the se caves or the more sandy beaches to the west of Vilamoura

The Morning Cruise option is a very popular choice for private yacht charters from Vilamoura and across the Algarve. 

Why is the morning cruise best?

In general the sea conditions in the Algarve are calmer at the begininning and the end of the day meaning we can get closer to the coastline and the coves. (This is not always the case of course but it is a rule of thumb in the Algarve) 

Typical Itinerary

The Morning cruise typically departs from Vilamoura Marina in the central Algarve.  The departure time is normally 10.00am but can vary with the time of year and the choice of boat. We will depart Vilamoura Marina and head west (turn right) where we will cruise around 350 metres from the shore line of Falesia beach. The cruise will take in the following beaches and rock formations / sea caves. 

Praia Rocha Baixinha

Praia da Falésia

Praia dos Olhos de Agua

Praia da Maria Luísa

Praia de St. Eulália

Praia da Oura

Praia dos Alemães

Praia dos Pescadores

Albufeira Marina

Praia de Arrifes  

Praia de São Rafael

Gruta da Xorino (Xorino Cave) 

Praia da Coelha

The exact schedule is always tailored to the weather and sea conditions on the day which is a huge advantage of having a private yacht charter and not a group tour.  On a typical cruise we will cruise west for approximately 1 hour, we will get as close to the coastline and caves as is safely possible. We have incredibly experienced crew and with the correct tide and wind conditions we can even take you inside Xorino cave which is a highlight of the tour. 

We will drop anchor for some time to swim and play in the water. Some of the boat options have snorkelling gear, some SUP (Stand Up Paddle boards), others have inflatable RIB boats to explore hidden beaches and the smaller caves.
