``We spent the day here with Duarte and his family - what a memorable experience! My team loved it; we went there for our yearly company offsite / team building event! The highlight of the day was the SUP (Stand-up Paddle). We had such a great time paddling around the Ria while contemplating the nature and surroundings. Super peaceful. I highly recommend this experience!``

``Simply spectacular!!! We did 2 days of activities: the first one was a family SUP tour. I had no idea how wonderful the ria is from the inside, beautiful! We saw flamingos and reached inaccessible places. On the second day we decided to be more radical: Water skiing, it was fantastic, great teachers: my 10 year old son skied for the first time. I strongly recommend.``
