It was built in Faro more or less 11 years ago. It is different from all other solar boats built by the company because of its adapted or photo-voltaic system. The boat is 8.30m long, being very spacious and stable, ideal for using tripods and monopods for bird observation and photography. We have 2 boats for 11 guests each, so we can take 22 people birdwatching at once. The fact that this solar boat tour runs solely on solar power, means there are no annoying motor sounds while cruising along the Ria Formosa. This way you can enjoy the view without disturbing nature!
