Rowing in the History of Mértola

Discover Mértola like you’ve never seen it before: from the calm waters of the Guadiana River. Our 2h30m kayak tour is an experience designed for those looking for an outdoor activity that combines nature, culture and adventure.

During the tour, we sail along the riverside area of Mértola, a museum town located in the heart of the Guadiana Valley Natural Park. This historic town has been a meeting point for cultures over the centuries – from the Romans to the Arabs – and still preserves traces of this rich civilization. Situated in a strategic position between the river and the hill, Mértola stands out for its medieval castle, ancient walls, the main church that was once a mosque, and a charming historic center.

Accompanied by an experienced guide fluent in several languages, participants not only enjoy a safe activity that is accessible to all levels of experience, but also have the opportunity to listen to engaging explanations about the main historical and strategic points of the village.

The guide shares interesting facts, legends and historical facts that further enrich this journey through the heart of Alentejo.
