3 hours of pure relaxation on our yacht "Simply No Stress"
Treat yourself to some time out on the Atlantic – with our new „Simply Relax“ tour you will experience everything a holidaymaker’s heart desires in 3 hours: sunbathing, swimming, snorkelling, good music, tasty snacks and of course a refreshing rum punch!
Tour itinerary
We start in the morning or afternoon with a transfer to the harbour of Sal Rei, where you transfer to the yacht by rubber dinghy. From there, our yacht will take you out to sea.
Our motor yacht „Simply No Stress“ offers everyone their favourite spot: on the front deck in the first row with a panoramic view | on the aft deck: shady, cosy, with upholstered benches & table (smoking area) | on the flybridge with sun & shade areas and a comfortable sun deck
We cruise comfortably through the beautiful bay of Chaves. Enjoy the fantastic view of the coast with a cool drink.
We drop anchor on a sheltered reef in front of the small, uninhabited island of „Djeu“. Those who wish can now explore the underwater world here – we have snorkelling equipment on board, of course.
How about a brave jump from the boat? Enjoy a refreshing dip in the sea. Relax on the sun deck with a cold drink and savour our snacks.
Back at the harbour, the taxi for the transfer back to your accommodation is already waiting for you.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions
Here you will find answers to frequently asked questions. If you have any further questions, please feel free to send us an e-mail or contact us via WhatsApp.
How can I book a trip?
Once you have decided on a tour, you can reserve your seats online via our booking system. It is very easy and intuitive to use. You assign a password during the booking process. This allows you to log in to our website at any time and easily make changes, payments or, if necessary, cancellations. For most tours, you will immediately receive a booking confirmation by e-mail. For some tours, your booking is initially only an „enquiry“. As soon as the minimum number of participants has been reached, you will also automatically receive your confirmation. For the Big Game Fishing Tour as well as for the Quad and Buggy Tours, simply fill out the form on our website – we will respond very quickly.

What about payment?
To guarantee your reservation, a deposit of 15 euros per person and tour is required. This can be done online via PayPal or credit card. If you do not have either of these payment options, please contact us via WhatsApp or email. The balance can either be paid in cash on the day of the tour or online before the tour via PayPal or credit card.
What is the cancellation policy?
You can cancel your tour(s) at any time up to 24 hours before the start of the tour without giving a reason. You can easily do this online by logging in to our website. For cancellations up to 12 hours before the start of the tour, a cancellation fee of 50% will be charged. This fee is waived if we are able to resell the seats. Cancellations made less than 12 hours before the tour will incur a 100% cancellation fee – less the cost of any included services such as food or drinks. This fee will be waived if we are able to resell the seats.

What happens to my payment if I cancel a tour?
We will of course refund any payments already made (minus any cancellation fees). The refund will be made in the same way as you made the payment (i.e. by PayPal, credit card or bank transfer).
What should I bear in mind on the boat trips?
In principle, you should be seaworthy for the boat tours. If you are not sure, it is best to take a travel tablet against seasickness before the tour. We also have tablets on board the yacht. The wind can often be fresher at sea than on land. It is therefore advisable to take a jacket or jumper with you. There are days when we have to cancel excursions due to the conditions at sea (very strong winds and/or waves that are too high). Sometimes this can happen at very short notice, as the weather forecasts are not always reliable and we can only make decisions based on the actual conditions. For this reason, we ask you to always check whether you have received a message from us by e-mail or WhatsApp before your boat trip.

Yes, the trips are all guided in English.
What do I wear - what do I need to bring?
We have a list of clothing recommendations for all tour descriptions. With each tour description you will also find a list of things you should bring with you.
