Porto Santo Underwater Paradise - Glass-Bottomed Catamaran
Porto Santo is known for its natural beauty, and its photogenic coastline is no exception. The water here is clear and blue, and the pale sands stretch unbroken for nine kilometres. Take it all in from a 100% electric, glass-bottomed Catamaran on this two hour cruise with a swim stop. See colourful underwater wildlife around the wreck of the Maria Cristina, and visit the natural reserve of Ilheu de Cima. It's worth looking out for dolphins and whales - which are often present in these waters - too.
