What To Expect
Night Snorkeling in a marine protected area. A lifetime experience!
Perfectly safe tour, in a secret natural pool inside the Marine Protected Area, that without our local guide you wouldn´t dare.
Ranked among 5 best activities in Porto Santo by City Boat Tours , this tour, has a very short window of opportunity, only available in some weeks when low tide occurs in the night. You will feel like Neil Armstrong exploring a new world! Totally dark with the exception of the place where you point out your flashlight. You get the opportunity to safely meet the night creatures that appear in the dark, like the night octopus or some astonishing beautiful shrimps Expect to see seastars and sea urchins in odd places, everything looks strange....Also different coloured fishes laying down sleeping, moray eels, a cuttlefish hunting, and of course some strange brittle stars; this is the cheapest ticket to Mars!.

Yes, we allow pregnant women to go on snorkeling. However, it’s crucial to consult with your healthcare provider before doing so to assess your individual health and pregnancy stage.
Jan 2022Yes, this is possible, as long as you are comfortable going into the water. All City Boat Tours snorkeling tours adhere to strict safety regulations and have been designed to be enjoyed by all.
Your safety is our #1 priority, which is why:
- You will be wearing a flotation device at all times.
- On many tours, there is a stairway from the boat into the water so you won’t have to “jump” in!
- There are trained staff in the water and watching from the boat at all times.
For these reasons, we believe that even non-swimmers can have a wonderful time on our snorkeling trips, however, the final judgment call is yours to make. Please note we do not give refunds if you decide not to snorkel on the trip.
Oct 2021The snorkel gear we use on City Boat Tours tours is high quality and for your protection, the equipment is sanitized after each use.
