Are you ready to go coasteering the Algarve’s coastline?
Never heard of coasteering? Well, if you like adrenaline and the ocean, why not give it a try? Coasteering the Algarve’s coastline is a true boost of adrenaline while you’re progressing in between the coastline and the ocean. Coasteering the Algarve’s coastline is swimming, walking, jumping from cliffs and a lot of fun. Coasteering is the perfect outdoor activity for active people visiting the western Algarve.
If you join us for this coasteering adventure, we will take you to our stunning location for this activity, located in the natural park of the Costa Vicentina, right between Sagres and Lagos. You can meet us in Raposeira at our meeting point, or we provide pick-up and drop-off at your accommodation.
After getting ready with a wetsuit, buoyancy aid, helmet and shoes, assessing the conditions and a safety briefing, we’re ready for some true adventure. We’ll walk down to the water’s edge and start our route exploring the coastline, hidden beaches, amazing cliffs, rock formations and clear ocean waters. With our local and experienced guide, you’ll also be learning about the marine environment and some local traditions.
Basically, you’ll spend half a day swimming in the ocean, inside sea caves, climbing and walking along the rocky shoreline and doing some cliff jumping. We can even jump inside the grottoes. We believe this is the perfect activity to do together with a group of friends or family, or even a team-building experience.
After all the action, we’ll walk back over the cliffs along the coastal path for a scenic experience while chatting about your session. The total duration of this experience varies between 3 and 4 hours. Please mention the age, height and weight of all participants in the notes upon booking (to choose the right gear).
