Full description

Discover the Benagil Caves on a guided boat tour from the Algarve. Take in the coastal views as you sail, look out for dolphins, and explore the interiors of several coastal caves, including Paraiso, Carvoeiro, and Benagil.

Begin your trip to the caves of the Algarve Coast. Explore the coastal caves ranging from Portimao to Caneiros, Paraiso, Carvoeiro, Benagil and Praia da Marinha. The trip will start on the Arade River at Clube Naval Portimao, from where you can view the landscape, Ferragudo Castle, and numerous beaches. After setting out to the open sea you will become witness to various rock formations and more than 20 caves. You will be able to journey inside the caves during your tour, which will provide you with the opportunity to take plenty of unique photos. If you are lucky on the day, you will also have the chance to see dolphins. You will of course be welcome to stop for a swim in the sea if you wish, and your guide will be explaining your surroundings for the duration of your tour. Once your tour has concluded, you will disembark at Portimao.

We really liked this boat trip! The employees were very friendly and we saw lots of beautiful caves and (hidden) beaches . I would definitely recommend this tour. It’s a must when you visit the Algarve. Just one tip, when you go there by car make sure you arrive there earlier. It was very difficult to find a parking spot.

ElEl mejor tour que he hecho en mi vida! Desde el principio la comunicación con el guía y luego la actividad fue impresionante, se paró en todas las cuevas, nos bañamos delante fe la Praia da Marina e incluso fue en busca de delfines porque los detectó cerca, además de sus explicaciones y que nos dejó en la misma playa de Carvoeiro para no tener que volver a Portimao y así empezar nuestro Trail por los Setes Valles Suspensos. Fue un tour increíble!

Wonderful experience! High value for the price. We were only 6 on the boat, making the tour very safe and comfortable. Joaquim and his staff are really friendly and told us interesting information about all the caves that we visited. 100% recommended!!!
