boat hire in Albufeira · Fountaine Pajot — Louisiane (2003)

When I arrived at the port my trip was cancelled by the captain due to bad weather the owner was made fully aware of this. I have contacted the owner and click boat but I haven’t received a refund. I am very dissatisfied I would not recommend click boat or Ruben to any other customers.

Excellent 3 hours spent with the family. Captain Jose was amazing. Very professional and welcoming. A great experience to be repeated again!

A brilliant trip suitable for all ages great sight seeing great fun

Had an amazing day on board Catamara Catje. So well looked after, lots of stops for paddling and swimming. José and his assistant were brilliant - shared lots of local knowledge and stories from the sea. Thanks so much for a wonderful day.

I had an amazing experience on Ruben's boat. He was very instrumental in helping me find a second boat to accommodate more guests and thus helped to make my birthday celebration a huge success. Thank you so very much!

Lovely captain. Would hire again

Great trip even though weather wasn’t good and super lovely captain and crew!

Great service from Captain Jose and also Rafael on board the catamaran. We were a little unlucky with the weather but still a good trip, very enjoyable and the crew graciously played with our boy whilst keeping him safe.

Would definitely recommend Rubens boat! There were 11 of us for a hen do, Ruben and his crew were really welcoming and explained safety information to us. We were able to take our own food and drinks on board which was great. We had an amazing afternoon making memories, was the highlight of the trip and even got the karaoke machine out! When one of us got seasick, Ruben responded immediately and sorted her out. All in all a great trip, good value for money would recommend for a hen!

Jose and Ricardo on board were amazing! The boat trip was great fun, we loved jumping off and using the paddle boards to explore the caves. Thank you!

Great moment with Ruben & Jose, they were so thoughtful and funny, we had the best afternoon we could imagine thanks to them. Just amazing.

Ruben and Claudia provided an unforgettable experience! Would highly recommend and will certainly return!

Great team and great boat. I would definitely recommend!!

Great communication and thoroughly enjoyed our day out. Great staff

Great experience !

Jose was super accomodating and helpful, unfortunately there was no snorkelling but aside from them it was a lovely journey and would love to do it again :)

Our Captain Jose and skipper Jose were fantastic and we had such a wonderful afternoon on our private catamaran. It was all made very easy - booking process was seamless, and Jose was extremely professional and really made the whole experience fantastic! We would definitely recommend and would look forward to doing this again when we return to Portugal, thank you!

Cruised on April 17 and had a fantastic time with Ruben and crew. I definitely recommend and would do this again. Manish

David and Jose were amazing! We got to see some dolphins and we had a beautiful proposal. Thank you so much !

Such a great day. The booking was really easy and affordable. The skippers on board were lots of fun and really made the whole experience for us. We had such a good day - can’t recommend this service highly enough for a big group!

Great day on the water! Our crew was amazing and found us just the relaxing, sunny vibe we were looking for. Would definitely recommend!

We had THE best time on the boat. It was absolutely perfect! Jose and David looked after us so well and took us exploring through the caves. We loved it so much we are booking again whilst we are in Portugal.

We had an amazing time on Ruben's cat! Plenty of room to spread out, the crew was FANTASIC as we spent the day spotting dolphins & exploring caves!

It was perfect ! Thank you !

David was fantastic !! So accommodating and couldn’t have done enough for us. He even went and retrieved a cap that one of the girls lost to the ocean. Super fun, we went as a group of 8 and had a speaker and a fridge to hold our drinks and drove us round to lovely coves and beaches. Couldn’t recommend enough!!

Great day with David and Victor, cut a little short due to weather unfortunately, although the guys kept us fully updated and entertained throughout the trip. The only small negative (cleanliness), was a problem with the toilet 🚻... which to be fair David sorted when informed of same.

David and our other captain were amazing! We had such a great day. They took us to a secluded location with the most beautiful caves. I highly recommend renting the paddle boards so you can easily enter the caves and private beaches. The captains were so lovely, they were extremely friendly and even helpful with our children. They were one of the best set of captains I’ve ever met on a boat rental. They showed us a great time. Highly recommend!

Perfect trip. Saw beautiful caves and enjoyed paddle. Wonderful captain.

Really nice boar and crew! I wish the boat was abit fast but it was very fun!

The catamaran was great. A bit if wear and tear but overall the experience was really fun. The staff were amazing hosts and we had a really good afternoon.

Our group had a FANTASTIC afternoon. Skipper David looked after us brilliantly, we couldn’t have asked for more. Everything was perfect :D

We were a party of 11 who booked the boat for a hen do afternoon and from start to finish had such a great day! My only two negatives points were 1. that I wanted a little bit more communication before the morning of the boat to let me know where to meet. It was our first day of the hen, we’d flown in later on the day before and I just felt like I wanted to be organised ready for the next morning and couldn’t do that properly. Although I will say, whenever I messaged Miguel through click and boat he responded very quickly. 2. It’s advertised as from Albufeira, but we stayed near the strip in albufeira and we had to get a taxi out to Ferragudo, 40ish mins way in an Uber. This was obviously an unexpected cost and time on the day. When we made it to Ferragudo we had to get on a taxi ferry out to the caramaran, which is an extra 5 euros each, but I had factored this in from reading other reviews. I thought the cost of the boat was great value for money so an addition 5 euros on top wasn’t a huge issue. We took our own alcohol on board as advertised, there was a fridge and plastic cups available to use. David the skipper, was so welcoming and helpful, he really couldn’t do enough for us. We had inflatables that he took and blew up for us, he got the speaker out straight away for us to put music on and brought us the microphone later on for those that wanted to do a bit of kareoke. We asked to do a stop and have a swim and they let us use the paddle boards too. David took one the girls to show them the caves on the paddleboards. He took photos and videos for us throughout the day and then WhatsApped them over to us. He honestly couldn’t have been any better of a host for us. One member of the party ended up being pretty sea sick and they even gave her some tablets to help ease it. The whole day was brilliant and I would highly recommend if you’re planning a hen party!

Amazing crew. Thank you for a wonderful day

Great captain and fantastic day on the sea. Paddle boards were a great extra!

It was a wonderful afternoon ! We spend the whole time on the boat and used a bit the paddle boards. Great spot chosen to stay for a few hours. The captains where super friendly et helped us when we needed

I had a really easy experience organizing and booking the boat and on the day, our captain, Rueben, was super. He looked after a few of my friends when they weren’t feeling great and made sure everyone had a great time. We brought our own food and drinks which was really nice to be able to do and Rueben found us a quiet, protected area to have lunch before we went back. We had so much fun, thank you!

A wonderful boat trip. The crew were very accommodating and joined in with our fun. We loved the paddle boarding. I would highly recommend this boat to another Hen party. Thank you for making it such a wonderful experience.

It was a pleasure to have a Hen do on this boat! Very friendly and helpful! Just the best time!

Brilliant time on the boat! So flexible with what we wanted to do and where to stop! The boat also had paddle boards which was great fun. Thanks for a superb day

We had an amazing day on the boat! Our skipper was soo friendly, they gave us a very warm & welcoming feeling on the boat. We had a lovely afternoon on sea with some stops to swim, kayak, paddleboard. Big recommendation to rent this boat! :-D

Skipper ruben and claudia were great and very sympatic people. Warm welcome on board! Boat might need some fixing and upgrade ( e.g de swimstairs, bur ruben will look after that). With click & boat we had some issues with payment. Problem with these platforms is that are impossible to reach someone! So not my favorite! However we were called ( thanks help of miguel) by one assistant ( fabio) who helped us out, thanks for that. Overall in the end a nice half day on the water.

Thank you for a fantastic day! Our captain Reuben was the best and made sure we were well looked after. He took us to the most amazing places and we had the best time! Will be back 🥰

Very enjoyable 3 hour+ journey along a portion of the Algarve coast. Crew (Claudia & Bruna) we’re very accommodating and friendly. Got to swim, paddle board, see caves and explore a beach too. Thanks for the memory for myself and my family - Ian.

Very nice afternoon : boat, sun, music and exploring the caves with a paddle! Thanks to Ruben

We were 8 girls on the boat and we had an amazing trip! We got to paddleboard into the caves which was absolutely beautiful, the boat was clean and had nice space for all of us, and the skipper was really nice as well! Worth the money, 10/10 would recommend

the boat we had was not the boat we had rented via the photos .. A complete other boat.. less space for our small children, very outdated, not clean .. captain could not do anything about this and was very fine and friendly .. we will never rent A boat via click & boat anymore

we enjoyed it so much! and the skipper, ruben, was such a nice and welcoming person :) would definitely recommend to anyone who would love to see the nicest spots of the algarve coast!

Hidden costs (5€ per Person for a ferry taxi to the catamaran). Skipper was pretty nice and gentle but conversation was misleading with the owner. We wanted to start the boat trip in Albufeira but then we had to drive 1 hour each way to portimao and started there! Not recommended

This experience was great! Captain genuinely wanted to ensure we had an amazing time with a speaker, a paddle board and photos! Would definitely rent again.

We 100% recommend Ruben's catamaran, he gave my daughter an unforgettable birthday, kindness and professionalism always present to answer your questions. Thanks again we loved it?

Amazing host! Thanks Jose ?

A little too many non-explicit additional costs

Wonderful, Captain Jose, a 10.

We had a great day, they have everything on the boat, paddle surf, snorkel, karaoke, refrigerator. We took a tour through the caves, Captain Jose was very funny and we stayed all day until sunset at a very good price.

We celebrated a bachelorette party and the experience was unbeatable. All the staff are exceptional and very pleasant, and they made sure that everything turned out to be 10. 100% recommended

Ruben has treated us great on his boat, full of comforts and making everything easy for us. If we return, we would repeat 100%!!

Great ride, magnificent crew, super attentive, helping at all times, ideal to do with the family. 10/10

Great!

A great experience and lots of fun with Ruben and Jose

Great day, great hosts?

It was a great day with Ruben and David! Thanks

Good communication with the skippers, the boat is great and we had a great time. They had a speaker and refrigerator which was great for us and they also carried paddle surf boards. Super recommended.

I want to say a big thank you to Mr. Zé and David for their kindness. They were impeccable and adhered to the spirit of the party. They made a point of anchoring in strategic locations so we could explore the caves on the paddle boards they had available. Thank you for everything Mr. Zé and David.

I paid for one service and got another.

Incredible experience!!! The guys were super nice and very attentive, they explained to us and we understood each other very well!! They showed us the caves, we went whenever we wanted and we used the kayaks whenever we felt like it!! We will repeat without a doubt!! Thank you so much?

The boat owner was very quick in communication and skippers were good and nice and we had a very nice time. is recommended

The skipper and his companion were wonderful, they took us to incredible coves and let us use the paddle surf boards, the boat is incredible to spend a day with your friends! 100% recommendable!

Nice and clean boat, good service and the two super nice skippers.

Great !

It was a great day, the team was great and the boat is really great. thank you for everything

Very nice walk! Nothing to say ! Everything went very well!

Had a very nice day on board. The crew was very friendly and helpful.

The value for money is very good. The Catamaran is acceptable, and logically if you want something much more luxurious you have to pay much more. For its price, the service is very good. Highly recommended. They recommended us to go see a cave that we did not know in the Algarve and it was spectacular, and for us alone!

We have had an excellent day on the boat! Very well equipped and very helpful and polite staff. We will repeat.

The trip was excellent! We were 10 adults and we had a great time. The boat was big, clean, had different material (paddle surf boards, snorkel equipment, loudspeaker...) they let us bring food and drinks and we anchored in a very cool area. Rubén, the boss, and his assistant, very nice and willing to help at all times. It was a very pleasant experience and we would repeat without a doubt. Perhaps we would have liked to see more places, but between the time to get there and the distance, it was not possible (with a 4-hour reservation, it is not enough). Very good experience.

Everything ok ?? For information, the boat captain and gasoline are paid separately (not included in the boat reservation)

Good trip!

The boat was very good, with a net area to lie down and you could sit around it. It had a paddlesurf that they left us. The captain was attentive and did not mind waiting and spending more time with us, since we went to a more remote area because a friend got seasick and needed to stop on dry land. I didn't understand much Spanish or English, but we understood each other well. He took some pictures of us during the trip and then passed them on to us. On the downside, we couldn't go to the cave area as we had agreed, we think because there were waves, but that was a real shame. For the rest, a very pleasant treatment and very good value for money in relation to other boats that we had seen of the style.
