Your boat, your route, your time — every Chifbay charter is private, from €400. Pick the trip that fits your day and check live availability on the calendar.
Real guests, real trips
Swim and paddle in clear water at Fajã dos Padres, in the midday light.
The coast in the evening light, drinks on deck, back to a lit-up Funchal.
Every trip includes the whole boat for up to 5 guests, two skippers, drinks and snacks, drone and Insta360 video and photos.
The whole boat, never shared — no waiting for other guests, no fixed script. One flat price whether you're two or five, often better value than shared tickets once you're two or more.
Every trip includes a licensed skipper, drinks and food on board, and drone footage of your day at sea. Free cancellation — see full terms.
Nothing extra to pay and nothing to set up. We film and photograph the trip and send it all to you after.
The Day Trip runs late morning or afternoon (10:00 or 14:00), includes swimming and paddle at Fajã dos Padres, and costs €500–€600. The Sunset Trip departs 18:30, is a cruising trip with no swimming — the water's too cold by evening — and costs €400–€500. Same boat, same coast, same skippers, just a different time of day.
Choose the Day Trip to swim, jump in and paddle board. Choose the Sunset Trip for golden-hour light, drinks on deck and a quieter pace. Both cover the same stretch of coast toward Cabo Girão.
For most groups, yes. You get the whole boat — no waiting for other guests, no fixed script, and the route can flex around what your group wants to see. The price is a flat rate for the boat, not per person, so it's often the same or better value than shared tickets once you're two or more.
Yes — message the skipper directly with your group size, dates and what you'd love to see (dolphins, coves, cliffs, sunset) and Chifbay will shape a private route around it.
As early as you can, especially in high season — one boat means limited slots each day. Live availability is on the booking calendar for both trips.
Tell us your group, your dates and what you'd love to see — dolphins, coves, cliffs, sunset — and we'll shape the perfect private route from Funchal Marina.
