Hi, I’m Max, and I’m here to take you on an unforgettable adventure in the Algarve! My journey has always been driven by adventure and a great passion for the sea and the skies. Many people know me from my acting career (I was an actor for 20 years on Brazilian television), but my true calling has always been exploring the world. At 22 years old, I became a private pilot, and since then, I’ve completed some major expeditions across Brazil in my airplane, logging over 5,000 flight hours. But my thirst for adventure didn’t stop there! I travelled 21,000 kilometers across South America in a motorhome, living on the road for six months. And as a true ocean lover, I have crossed the Atlantic three times on sailing yachts! For the past seven years, I have been living aboard my sailboat, learning that the best way to live is with my feet in the water and my mind open to discoveries. I’ve been living in Portugal for several years and I'm ready to be your guide in this spectacular region, sharing not only the best routes but also incredible stories and unique experiences. If you’re looking for an authentic adventure, with someone who truly understands and lives the spirit of sailing, I’m the perfect host to take you on this journey. As your local guide, I am committed to creating a personalized and unforgettable experience. Whether you’re seeking breathtaking natural wonders, captivating cultural encounters, or a deeper connection with the Algarve’s sea soul, I invite you to embark on this journey with me. I’ll take you beyond the usual tourist routes, sharing hidden gems, fascinating stories, and the true essence of this magical region. Are you ready to sail with me?
