5.00So much fun!!! Would definitely recommend this tour group! No “bells and whistles” in terms of photos or videos, but I think that made the experience more authentic and the tour guides were top tier!!!
Awesome coasteering experience!!!

4.00Because of the somewhat busy environment, we could park 5 minutes further. Very friendly received by lady at the desk. This friendly enthusiastic tone was continued by our female guide who gave the instructions clearly and with humor. During the trip several times jumped off rocks which was very cool. Swimming and climbing we went from rock to rock, where there was a little break. The pace was therefore doable! Definitely recommended!
Great physically demanding and adrenaline pumping activity

4.00Great physically demanding experience. The staff was great and funny. The one thing I do not like is that they charge you for shoes and shorts. They should just include that in the price and not try to charge extra. They should also offer a picture package because you cannot bring your phones

5.00Our coasteering experience with Vertente Natural was the highlight of our holiday. We took our 13 year old kids along and they had the time of their lives, scrambling around and leaping off into the crystal clear waters. We were all exhilarated by the experience and would highly recommend this fun filled adventure. Francisco and Letícia were incredible guides. They ensured we all had a great time, whilst keeping everyone safe and reassured. Both were calm, kind and full of good humour. Thank you so much!
Best day ever!

5.00We had the best experience from pick up in Lisbon to drop off back in Lisbon. The driver was so friendly and welcoming. The tour guides Francisco and Francisco were awesome. This activity is perfect for the adventurous family. We had a blast and felt comfortable throughout the trip. It was one of our favorite activities ever and would highly recommend it!
