What you can expect

Welcome aboard the Gageiro – where the day becomes a cherished memory.

Forget crowded speedboats and noisy engines. Your journey begins in Portimão aboard a true nautical treasure: a lovingly restored, over 95-year-old wooden sailing boat dating back to 1927.
Chapter 1: The Golden Coast in the Evening Light

We leave the harbour and glide along the Algarve's stunning rocky coastline. In the warm light of the setting sun, the golden cliffs and hidden coves appear even more striking – calmer, softer, almost surreal. It's a sight that most travellers never get to experience like this.

Chapter 2: Anchoring in the João d'Arens Nature Reserve

Our destination is the João d'Arens Nature Reserve. We will drop anchor in this tranquil bay. If the sea allows, you will have the opportunity to take a refreshing swim – or you can stay on board and simply enjoy the unique atmosphere at sea.

Chapter 3: Sunset Sail in Style

For the return journey, we will set sail. The engine falls silent – and suddenly, there is nothing but wind, sea, and stillness.
Experience true, authentic sailing as the sun sinks over the Atlantic Ocean and the sky is bathed in warm colours.
On board, you will have the opportunity to purchase drinks, including our own wine, which is perfect for this special moment.
