Myself and my son booked in for 4 hour bottom fishing this morning and had a brilliant experience and caught lots of fish which we enjoyed at restaurant when we came back in from fishing. The crew are amazing start to finish and full of knowledge and extremely helpful. Boat left on time and is a must do experience for anyone who likes to fish. Price is very affordable and fair. We will be returning when we visit again to next time do the shark 🦈 fishing. I'd rate the experience 10/10 for the staff alone.
Dear Shane, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a fantastic review. We're delighted to hear that you and your son had such a memorable fishing trip and enjoyed catching plenty of fish together. It's even better to know you were able to enjoy your catch afterwards at the restaurant. Your kind words about our crew mean a lot to us. We work hard to provide a friendly, knowledgeable, and enjoyable experience for all our guests, so it's wonderful to hear that their efforts helped make your trip so special. We truly appreciate your recommendation and are thrilled that you found the trip great value for money. We look forward to welcoming you both back on board for another adventure, hopefully next time for the shark fishing trip. Kindest regards, Alvor Boat Trips Miguel Lourenço
The Captain was incredibly knowledgeable about where to fish and how to catch fish. My son and I caught the most fish we have ever in our lifetime, and we've been on lots of fishing excursions. The first mate Clayton was also extremely knowledgeable and explained lots of helpful tips. Both of these experienced fishers were amazing.
Dear Anthony, Thank you for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that you had a great trip and that our crew helped make your experience enjoyable. It's always a pleasure to know our guests had a lovely day on the water with our knowledgeable captain with more than 40 years of experience. Klayton will be happy to know that he contributed for an excellent experience of yours as well! We really appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back on board again soon.

We did the 4 hour morning bottom fishing tour. Aurelia and Clayton were a great crew. We had a nice boat cruise on the way out and they got us directly to the fishing spot. We were catching fish within 10 minutes of throwing out our lines. We caught a large variety of fish. They were all relatively small but the quantity was great for everyone to catch fish and we took home much more than we could eat in a meal. We caught various Breams, Trumpet fish, Scorpion fish, Grouper, and Mackerel. On the way back in from the reef we were lucky enough to see some dolphins right next to the boat. Aurelia was so great with our 7 and 9 year old boys. This trip is perfect for a group that wants to catch quantity over size. We would highly recommend this tour! We had our fish cleaned and cooked for us at A Ribeira, the restaurant right on the harbor.
Dear Tyler, Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear that you had such a fantastic time on the fishing tour. Aurélio and Klayton will be so happy to hear your kind words! It sounds like it was an unforgettable day, especially with the dolphins and all the great catches. We appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back for another amazing trip in the future. We hope you enjoyed your freshly cooked fish at A Ribeira! Kindest regards, Miguel Lourenço Alvor Boat Trips

First cast caught a fish. Subsequent casts produced more fish. Varieties included white and black bream, horse mackerel, and trumpet fish. Our 4 hr excursion with 8 anglers ended with over 60 fish. Took our catch to the restaurant next door and they cleaned and cooked them up and served with salad, potatoes, and some sort of stuffing, for 10 euros. Delicious. Captain and crew were awesome. Highly recommend.
Dear Colin, Thank you very much for your great review and for sharing your experience with us. We are delighted to hear you had such a successful fishing trip and enjoyed both the catch and the local restaurant experience afterwards. Our captain and crew always do their best to make every trip fun and memorable. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you onboard again soon. Kind regards, Miguel Lourenço Alvor Boat Trips

Another amazing day out fishing even though we didn't catch massive amount of trip the captain and crew were brilliant and even managed to see some dolphins this was our second year fishing and will return again next time we are in Portugal
