Great tour - This was a very well organized, professional trip. The guide was great and they did a great job maximizing your time on the water. We booked a relatively short trip (2hrs and 15 min) and we got started exactly on time and ended exactly on time. The views were great and we thought it was more fun than Benagil, which seemed busier with relatively the same scenery.

GREAT EXPERIENCE! - This was everything I could’ve asked for and more from a kayaking tour! All of the staff involved were very kind and helpful. We took a boat from the port to the beach where we then got into the kayaks. The boat followed us the whole time in case we needed anything. Our tour guide was funny and very nice. All in all great views and so much fun!

Great kayaking tour! - Our kayak trip was amazing! We met at the Blue fleet office, which is located in the train station. We then walked down to the docks and got on the boat. The boat trip to the launch point takes about 8 minutes and the guides go over safety information and the route. Once we arrived at the launch point we sat in the kayak and were lowered into the water. Nice and simple! We went all through the caves and cliffs! Our guide told us stories about each area. You can rent kayaks from the different beaches and go yourself, but I prefer to go with a guide because you get information about the formations and it’s safer to be in a group of you are not a strong kayaker. The day we went was a little cloudy and grey but the view was still spectacular. After the tour you have the option to jump off the boat to swim. They also provided water ( which is always amazing) and wine. Overall a great tour!

Exceeded all our expectations - This was an amazing excursion. The weather was not ideal that day but the staff was wonderful and our guide was quite entertaining. The sights were beautiful and although the sea got a little rough at the end there were never any safety concerns. We lost our car keys and the staff went above and beyond trying to help us out.

Stunning scenery and great people! - Kayaking was the best way to see the beautiful caves and grottos of Lagos. Going with Blue Fleet made it easier by boarding their catamaran where you can store your belongings and then they assist you with getting into the kayaks while out to sea. A tour guide leads you along the beautiful coast and explains the history and fun facts. We felt safe and secure and are novice kayakers - so don’t be afraid to try this! It was our favorite part of our trip to Lagos.

A must do trip if near Lagos - We're just back from kayaking with these guys out of Lagos and I can recommend them enough. There were only ten of us altogether on the trip which was just the right amount. The boat was really nice with pads and bean bags to chill out on along the way to the place where we swapped over into the Kayaks. We were in double units which was great as my son is a bit young to paddle in the right direction :) The guide who was really nice took us around all the best spots before we paddled back to the boat. Then we had some fun jumping into the water followed by some chilled water and some tasty port for the grown ups which was exactly what was needed. We all hung out for the 30 or so minutes on the way back where the crew chatted with us about the history of what we could see including which celebrities had stayed along the coast in the beautiful houses on the cliff edges. These guys were great, super professional and I can't recommend highly enough. Even my teenage daughter loved it and that says a lot!

I’d strongly recommend Blue Fleet for your water excursion. - Excellent staff and well organized. We met at the train station which might seem odd but with plenty of seating in A/C and bathrooms while you wait. Max 12 people (6 double kayaks) so a nice number. A short walk to the boat and away we went. Staff were conversant in English, Spanish and likely a few other common EU languages. Excellent guide who gave a short explanation of everything we needed. Felt safe and comfortable aboard, a short boat ride outside the harbour and we launched. The tour itself was interesting but due to many, many motor driven boats giving private tours competing with access to the caves it wasn’t as enjoyable. Virtually every cave we entered there was at least one boat coming or going and they didn’t seem to care if the cut you off or came close. Tourism has created a cluster of competing enterprises on the water but our boat and crew were excellent!!
