Head out on a boat to some of the most secluded beaches and caves and then dive into the crystal Algarve waters.
If you have never been snorkeling before then the trained professionals can take you through everything you need to know and will also provide you with all the equipment that you need for a snorkeling trip in the Algarve.
This is a fantastic experience for a Hen Do or a Stag Do in Albufeira!
It doesn’t matter what your level of experience is, all you need to be able to do is swim and you can start to snorkel immediately making it a great choice for those who don’t either have the time or the inclination to do a full scuba dive but still want to have the underwater experience.
The Algarve is located along the Atlantic coast and the first thing that you need to be aware of is that the sea here is not like the Mediterranean! Most of the year the seas are calm with gentle waves but during the winter it can get pretty rough and it is best to avoid snorkelling during these times!
In the summer the waters along the Algarve coast warm up to be about 20 degrees and this is far more comfortable for snorkelling but it is still a good idea to consider wearing a wet suit if you intend to be in the water for some time. If you are unsure if you will need a wet suit or not for snorkelling in the Algarve then just give us a call and a member of the team will be able to help you out and offer advice.
The only way to find the best spots along the length of the Algarve coast is to follow the experts and taking part in an organised snorkelling trip means that you won’t waste time in the wrong areas and will instead go straight to the sheltered coves that are best suited for snorkelling.
