  • "A great sailing day in the Algarve!"

    July 14, 2013

    We cruised with SouthWest Charters out of Lagos to introduce our Grandson to sailing. We were both entertained by Gonzales and Rui and benefited from their obvious professionalism.

    We have no hesitation in recommending Southwest Charters in Lagos Marina to anyone who wishes to get on the water.

  • "Highly recommended! A great experience."

    July, 2012

    We actually contacted Southwest Charters with regards to power boat charter, as there were none available during our stay we instead chartered the Beneteau Oceanis 411 for a half day sailing trip, it was fantastic!

    Our crew were very friendly, happy to take us where we wanted and making us feel comfortable. We cant wait until next time were in lagos.

  • "High light of the Holiday..."

    Agosto, 2013

    We came to Portugal last year, with a group of 14 people and we hired out two boats for one full day, both the skippers were very help full. They took us to a private island for lunch and we did water sports and different activities that were great for all age levels.

    We enjoyed it that much that we are currently booking up to do the same thing again this year with Southwest Charters. We hope to have an enjoyable trip as we did last year! 

  • "Fantastic sailing adventure!"

    June, 2013

    We went sailing last year on a 42' Beneteau Oceanis 411 with Goncalo and Rui, company crew and had such a wonderful time, that we booked two days of sailing this trip. On the second day we actually sailed out to watch the historic intentional sinking of the “Comandante Hermenegildo Capelo” frigate. We then went to a lovely lagoon and had wine provided by Southwest, and a picnic lunch provided by Cascade Resort, where we were staying. I strongly recommend an outing with these two very experienced staff, even if you don't like a rugged sail, they can trim the boat to minimize the motion.
