About this activity
The Andreza yacht just for your group, up to 12 people, half a day along the Albufeira coast — sparkling wine and oysters on arrival and food on board from start to finish.
An exclusive experience: Andreza is reserved just for your group, with a dedicated crew, departing from Marina de Albufeira. On a half day, you cruise the coast, with stops to swim and admire the caves.
And it is not only the boat that is yours: sparkling wine and oysters on arrival, wine, charcuterie, cheeses and canapés during the trip, and fig cake with brandy on the way back. The route is built around you — if you want to spend an hour anchored in one cove, you do.

Full refund up to 72 hours before. Between 72 and 24 hours before, 50% of the quoted price is refunded. Less than 24 hours before, there is no refund. If bad weather prevents the trip, an alternative date is offered; if no date works, the refund is made less up to 15% for administration and preparation.

More information
The price is for the boat, not per person — you split it across the group. The itinerary is fully customisable and so is the duration: besides the half day there is a 4-hour, a full-day and a sunset option. For tailor-made requests, talk to us before booking.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will I get wet?
On a yacht, normally not. You will get wet if you go in at the swim stop, where there is one.
Is the price per person?
No. The price is for the whole boat, not per head, up to 12 people — it is the same whether a few of you go or the full group.
What languages is the activity in?
The crew or guide speak Portuguese and English.
Can I bring my own food and drink?
Bringing your own food or drink on board is not allowed, with the exception of food for small children. Boats with a bar sell drinks and snacks, and trips with a meal included bring everything you need.
Are there life jackets on board?
Yes, for adults and children, and the crew shows you where they are before departure. Wearing one at all times is only mandatory on the boats and routes where the law requires it — you are told at boarding.
Pregnancy, back trouble, a wheelchair or a pushchair — is it possible?
Nearly always, and the right answer is given before you book, not on the quay. As a rule a pregnant passenger can go, with the final word resting with the skipper depending on the sea that day. Anyone with a sensitive back will feel the impact far more on a small fast boat than on a catamaran, which is stable and has proper seating. For a wheelchair or a pushchair, some boats have a boarding ramp and on others boarding requires you to be steady on your feet, and the toilets on board may not be adapted. Tell us the specifics and the date you want: we confirm with the operator which departure works, and only then do you pay.
What happens in bad weather?
The decision to sail is always the skipper’s, for safety. If a departure is cancelled because of the sea or the weather, you choose: a new date or a full refund — the booking is not lost.
Can I bring my pet on board?
As a rule no, with the exception of guide dogs with proper documentation. Some operators will consider it case by case — if you want to bring yours, tell us before booking and we will check with the boat operator.
Can I bring a backpack?
You can, as long as it fits on your lap. Bring only the essentials.
What if someone feels unwell on board?
Every operator follows safety protocols and has maritime support. If it happens, tell the crew straight away — that is what they are there for.
