Meet Álvaro 😄
The youngest member of the Algarviews team, and proof that age has very little to do with experience.
Born in Portimão and raised in Porches, he studied Computer Science before realising that life behind a screen could never compete with life on the ocean. He started working with kayaks at Praia da Senhora da Rocha while he was still young, and he’s never looked back!
Around here, we call him our influencer 📸 If you’ve ever wondered who’s filming those epic moments during the tour, there’s a good chance it was Álvaro behind the camera, somehow finding the perfect angle without anyone even noticing 🤭
When he’s not paddling along the Algarve coast, you’ll probably find him on his motorbike, exploring the region one road at a time. Speed, adventure and a little adrenaline have always been part of who he is. Whether it’s two wheels on the road or a kayak on the sea, he simply loves the journey!
For someone so young, his work ethic inspires all of us. He’s always the first to offer a hand, the last to complain, and somehow always has the energy for one more tour 💪🏼
And if you happen to join one of our Chinese tours, chances are you’ll meet him there too. Jack’s trusted sidekick, always ready to jump in wherever he’s needed 🤩
This is Álvaro. We can’t wait for you to meet him!
