Full-Day Cruise Experience
During the full-day experience, guests are taken on a scenic coastal cruise to admire the magnificent landscapes, dramatic cliffs, caves, hidden beaches, and iconic areas such as Benagil and Carvoeiro.
After the coastal tour, we anchor in an exclusive, sheltered area where the experience becomes even more special. Here, our crew will take guests to explore caves and secret spots using our tender boat. Guests can relax, use the paddle boards, snorkel, enjoy a delicious meal, sip a refreshing drink, dance, and make the most of this unforgettable day at sea.
Throughout the day, we will pass by several stunning locations, including Carvoeiro, Benagil, Alvor, Ferragudo, and the famous Ponta da Piedade.

SailChecker Expert View
Perfect for families This 44-footer catamaran is an excellent choice if you're traveling with kids or want plenty of space without the complexity of a larger yacht. Four cabins sleeping eight mean everyone gets comfortable cabin space, and the shallow draft typical of cats makes anchoring in shallow bays and reef areas much easier.
Well-equipped for leisure The inclusion of an ice maker, SUP boards, snorkeling gear, and a dinghy with outboard tells you this boat is set up for relaxed exploration and water activities rather than serious sailing performance. The generator is a practical touch for longer passages or guests wanting creature comforts while at anchor.
Strong value proposition The zero deposit is genuinely appealing, especially for international charterers flying in from the US or Europe, one less financial hurdle before your holiday. At 44 feet with four cabins in 2026 spec, you're getting modern comfort without paying for a superyacht footprint.
One real limitation The catamaran will be slower to windward and less thrilling if you're an experienced sailor looking for performance; it's designed for comfortable cruising and anchoring rather than spirited sailing. Also, without the base location listed, I can't advise on airport logistics or whether connecting flights are reasonable, worth checking with The Ocean Week directly on that front.

The marina & destination
Based at Marina de Portimao, in Portimao, Portugal. Premium + is operated by The Ocean Week.
Ponta da Areia
Marina de Portimão sits in the central Algarve and makes a strong base for exploring Portugal's southern coast and the nearby Spanish waters of Huelva. Week 1 typically takes you east along the dramatic limestone cliffs toward Lagos and Sagres, or west across the border to the quieter anchorages around Ayamonte; the marina itself offers good shelter and reliable northeast winds for downwind passages to either direction. The town provides solid provisioning and repair facilities if needed before you head further afield.
