Banana boats etc....

Post by kennycapes »

Hi all, sorry to lower the tone but my 7 year old lad tried his first inflatable tow along thing last year near vilamoura and loved it. We've been to CVO a number over times over the last 10 years but I don't ever recall seeing people on beaches offering these type of speed boat tow long things. Any ideas where they may be in the area

Many thanks

I'll have a look out for them, hopefully there will be some there in september, when we visited praia da rocha there was lots of things like that - pedalo and something that looked like some sort of floating assault course :?: Looked fun!
