09:00 hrs Pickup from TIME OUT MARKET of Lisbon and drive through the scenic upcountry to Arrabida Park in a van is an enjoyable journey. Most of the time the drive is through the Foggy climate.
You meet a guide at the Arrabida Park. Ours was AFONSO. Absolutely knowledgeable, passionate guide. Explains the Kayaking in depth and then leads you throughout the journey explaining the various parts of Arrabida Park. He has super knowledge about the restaurants across the PORTUGAL which serves the food to your taste. We had a combination of Vegetarian, Fish lover and meat fello. AFONSO gave us so much. He is a good photographer too and shares the photos along the Kayaking by the time you reach your hotel.
Sandwiches on a small beach at lunch time is an treat in the middle of nowhere, with AFONSO carrying his home made cake and some fruits. You can enjoy a swim in cold water of ocean. Absolutely Refreshing.
By the end of around 9km. kayaking you are tired and all of us were dozing on our return journey. We were back at 16:00 Hrs for a pastry and coffee AFONSO had recommended in Time Out Market.
