Great morning of fishing with the family!

4Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing Private6 adults2 children

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.

    Jornada de pesca inolvidable en familia, un 10 rotundo!

    4 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing Shared • 2 adults • 1 child

    Una experiencia sencillamente espectacular de principio a fin. Fui con mi hijo y la jornada superó todas nuestras expectativas: no paramos de sacar capturas y nos volvimos a casa con una bolsa bien llena de pescado fresco. El trato a bordo fue insuperable; tanto el capitán como su compañero son unos auténticos profesionales, atentos en todo momento, facilitándonos todo y asegurándose de que disfrutáramos al máximo cada minuto. Recomendado al 100%, ¡sin duda repetiremos cuando volvamos!

    Fantastic fishing trip for beginners!

    2 Hour Trip – Family Fishing Shared • 2 adults

    My son and I went on the 2-hour fishing trip with Alvor Boat Trips and, as complete beginners, we thought it was perfect for us. It took around half an hour to reach the reef, where the team set up the rods and got everyone ready to fish. There wasn’t a huge amount of instruction, but to be honest, we didn’t really need it. Everybody seemed to catch plenty of fish, and between us we caught mackerel, boga, sea bream and Pandora. We had around an hour and a half of fishing before heading back to Alvor, which felt like the right amount of time. The whole experience was really easy from start to finish — booking was straightforward and we just had to turn up with nothing. A great option if you’re new to fishing and want to give it a go without committing to a full-day trip. We both really enjoyed it and would definitely recommend it.

    A top notch charter and crew

    4 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing Shared • 3 adults

    We couldn't be more satisfied. From start to finish, they helped my 4 & 8 year old daughters have an incredible experience. We've been on charters where they just give us bait and that's it. But their crew never left my daughters' side and helped them every step of the way. We will DEFINITELY be back and would recommend 100% to anyone looking for a family-friendly charter

    unbelievable trip. Don't miss out

    4 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing Shared • 2 adults

    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.

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
