Enjoy a romantic private yacht cruise through Ria Formosa. Swim, explore islands, and relax with your partner in total privacy.

Sail Through Serenity with a Peaceful Couple’s Getaway in the Algarve

Discover a different side of the Algarve with a romantic private yacht cruise through the Ria Formosa Natural Park. Known for its calm waters, unspoiled islands, and incredible natural beauty, this experience is ideal for couples seeking quiet moments together, far from the crowds. It’s a peaceful escape designed for two — with luxury, privacy, and nature all around you.

Departing from Vilamoura Marina, you’ll sail east along the coast before entering the protected lagoon system of Ria Formosa. Glide past small fishing villages, deserted sandbanks, and hidden islands. Whether you're sunbathing on deck, enjoying a drink, or stopping for a swim in turquoise water, the rhythm of this cruise is completely yours.

Why Choose the Romantic Ria Formosa Cruise

This cruise is ideal for couples who want to unwind and disconnect from busy schedules. Ria Formosa offers a slower, more intimate experience than the typical coastal tours — and with no fixed itinerary, it becomes a private retreat built around your pace.

  • Calmer waters — ideal for peaceful cruising and conversation
