Who We Are

About Cape Cruiser

Cape Cruiser emerged in 2003 as a pioneer in the maritime tourism sector, establishing its base in the emblematic Porto da Baleeira, in Sagres. Since then, we have specialized in the extraordinary experience of observing cetaceans and seabirds, exploring the secret caves of the Costa Vicentina Natural Park, and providing exciting sport fishing adventures. Over the years, our business has flourished and witnessed successive generations of individuals connected to the sea, all united by an unwavering passion for these vast waters.

IN 2022

A New Phase

We are now embarking on a new and exciting phase, in which we dedicate ourselves to the knowledge and sharing of unforgettable moments that resonate throughout a lifetime. We provide a truly unique view of the marvelous world of local geology and the rich wildlife that inhabits the waters and skies of the stunning Algarve.

As a family business, we pride ourselves on having skilled and experienced professionals knowledgeable in all the maritime nuances and animal species found in this region. All our maritime excursions are led by a marine biologist and specialized guides, who provide a brief presentation on the species that can be sighted and offer detailed information about the fascinating coastline.

Our Duty is to Care for the Sea

As a company belonging to the Southwest Alentejo and Vicentina Coast Natural Park, we believe we have a duty to care for our sea and its inhabitants, preserving their well-being without disturbing their natural habitats.

We are committed to helping keep our seas clean, paying attention to litter and fishing gear accidentally lost at sea, which we recover to prevent them from harming wildlife.
