Activities FAQ

Planning your trip and want to make the most of the Algarve outdoors? These are the questions we get asked all the time, here’s what to know before you book.

What are the best outdoor activities in Lagos, Portugal?

Lagos is a playground for anyone who loves the outdoors. The best outdoor activities here include surf lessons at Meia Praia, stand-up paddleboarding tours through the caves of Ponta da Piedade, and kayak tours to explore hidden beaches and grottos. People also love our catamaran cruises and dolphin watching trips. It’s all about getting out on the water and seeing what makes this place so special.

How much do outdoor activities in Lagos cost?

Most activities are super accessible price-wise. A kayak tour runs at €35 and includes a guide, snorkeling gear, and support boat. Catamaran cruises start at €39, and stand-up paddleboarding is also great value for a full 3-hour tour. For adrenaline, there’s wakeboarding and e-jetboard riding, which cost more but offer next-level experiences. Don’t forget, you also get 10% off in our shop when you book any activity.

Is Lagos a good place to learn how to surf?

One of the best. Surfing in Lagos is great for first-timers and those leveling up. The beaches around here, like Meia Praia and Porto de Mos, have the right waves and the right vibes. Our local instructors keep it fun and safe, with group surf lessons, private sessions, and even kids-specific options. You’ll feel the excitement in no time.

What’s the most exciting water sport in Lagos?

If you want to level up the energy, e-jetboarding is the move. You’re basically flying over the water on a motorised board. For more traditional water sports, wakeboarding at the local wakeboard park is a crowd favorite, and windsurfing offers a mix of speed and skill that’s super rewarding once you get the hang of it. All these activities are run by pros who’ll get you going even if you’ve never tried it before.

Can I go kayaking in Lagos year-round?

Yeah, you can kayak most of the year, but the sweet spot is between April and October. That’s when the ocean is calmer and the weather’s perfect for exploring. Our kayaking tours take you into the famous sea caves and arches of Ponta da Piedade, plus a few secret spots you’d never find on your own. All gear’s included, and there’s a support boat on hand to keep things safe and chill.

What are some romantic things to do for couples in Lagos?

If you’re planning a relaxed day with your partner, the Golden Coast catamaran cruise is a no-brainer. You’ll sail past beautiful cliffs and fishing villages with a drink in hand. For sunrise vibes, book the SUP cave tour and paddle through the caves before anyone else is out. You could also go dolphin watching together or take a private surf lesson for something a little more active.

What outdoor activities in Lagos are best for kids?

There’s a bunch. Our kids surf lessons are designed just for little ones, with safe waves and friendly instructors. Dolphin watching is also great: relaxed, educational, and full of smiles. For something a bit more energetic, SUP cave tours and skimboarding lessons are fun for ages 8 and up.

What kind of Algarve outdoor adventures go beyond the beach?

Even though the beach is the main draw, there’s more to explore. Our e-bike tours are a great way to see the inland side of the Algarve, cruising through hills, villages, and coastal trails. You can also go full throttle with coasteering: cliff jumps, swims, and cave scrambles along the rugged coastline. It’s one of the most exciting ways to really connect with this part of Portugal.

What’s the difference between surfing and skimboarding?

Surfing is all about catching waves out in the lineup, paddling out and riding back in. Skimboarding, on the other hand, is more about timing and speed in shallow water near the shore. Both are super fun, and we’ve got lessons and all the gear for either one. If you’re new to both, try surfing first and add a skim session for something different.

Can we book activities as a group in Lagos?

Yeah, we do group bookings all the time. Whether it’s a crew on a surf trip, a birthday, or a company day out. We’ll help you build a plan that fits your vibe, from surf guiding to catamaran tours, SUP cave adventures, or a wild time on the Booze Cruise in Lagos. Just hit us up and we’ll make it easy.

What’s the Booze Cruise Lagos all about?

The Booze Cruise is pure fun. It’s a three-hour party on the water with unlimited drinks, DJs, games, and an unreal coastal backdrop. It’s 18+ only and a top choice for groups, birthdays, and anyone who wants to mix a little adventure with a lot of good times. It’s one of the most talked-about outdoor activities in Lagos for a reason.
