Great trip out with Bond Charter. We were well looked after and the boat was lovely. All the family loved the trip including a bit of paddle boarding and swimming. I would highly recommend them A++

Me and my friends rented the RIB for a day, without a skipper. Manuel is a very friendly guy. He explained everything well and after the necessary paperwork we were on our way quickly. The boat looked brand new and was completely clean. We opted to rent the waterski’s but even on a relatively quiet day the waves made it too hard to ski properly. This was especially true for the beginners in our group. We spent our day exploring the beautiful coastline along Albufeira, we checked out the caves and we anchored at some of the amazing beaches. Space on the boat was plenty for 6 guys. During the rental, we ran into a small technical issue outside of anyone’s control. Manuel helped us out swiftly and he went out of his way to help us. In the end we had a great day and I would definitely rent with Manuel again.
