Choose between a morning or afternoon tour, with the afternoon option featuring a sunset view! In the summer, the afternoon tour is recommended as the islands are less crowded, the temperature is more comfortable, and it’s perfect for swimming. The itinerary remains the same, with the only difference being a shorter stay in Culatra due to no lunch break, though dining options are available on the islands.
