Are you ready for a Ria Formosa Birdwatching Boat Tour?
Do you love being outside in nature and observe the magical coming and going of birds? On this Ria Formosa birdwatching boat tour, you can admire the big variety of rare bird species in the Ria Formosa Natural Park just outside of Faro.
The friendly and experienced crew will welcome you on board of the comfortable boat at the Doca de Recreio in Faro. Come on board and take a seat in the sun or shade, and get ready for a beautiful 2-hour boat trip in Ria Formosa. Did you know that the protected area of Ria Formosa is one of the 7 Natural Wonders of Portugal? It is also the most important wetland for aquatic birds in Portugal, and home to many special species you can’t find anywhere else around.
During the Ria Formosa birdwatching boat tour you can observe birds like White Stork (Ciconia ciconia), Little Egret (Egretta garzetta) and the Spoonbill (Platalea leucorodia), Whimbrel (Numenius phaeopus), Turnstones (Arenaria interpres) and the Grey Plover (Pluvialis squatarola). We will also pass by the oyster and clam farms, which are an important economic part of this region. But don’t worry, the captain will happily tell you all about it! Through your binoculars which are included you may also see a Black-tailed Godwit (Limosa limosa) or an Oystercatcher (Haematopus ostralegus).
Once we reach the point where Ria Formosa meets the sea, there will be more species to find! Depending on the time of year we usually find Little Terns (Sterna albifrons), Kentish Plovers (Charadrius alexandrinus) Sandwich Terns (Sterna sandvicensis) and Greater Flamingos (Phoenicopterus roseus) around here!
