Overview

The Polynesian canoe, also known as the Hawaiian canoe, is the perfect vessel for leisure time with family and friends. It is an extremely stable, safe and comfortable canoe. We are the only Polynesian canoe club on the banks of the Arade River, which divides Portimão/Lagoa.

Taking a trip along the waters of the River Arade in a Polynesian canoe is the best way to contemplate one of the most beautiful and preserved areas of the entire Algarve region.

With beautiful sites of great scenic and ecological value, the Arade River is even more special with the sunset and dawn lights. Undoubtedly, it is the experience that cannot be missed in your tourist itinerary.
