A pequena traineira tem charme. Boa a opção da limitação a 8 passageiros. Excelente a organização da viagem com a partição de dois grupos de 4 - um faz a viagem às grutas num pequeno bote e o outro fica na traineira para dar mergulhos e tomar banho naquelas águas límpidas e depois trocam. O condutor do pequeno bote que mostra as grutas é experiente e dá segurança.

Lovely guides and only 9 of us on main boat, so half could swim and half were taken in around the caves, absolutely stunning, and great guide telling us the names for each place. Had a fabulous morning and half the price of my benagil boat yesterday. There was 60 of us on that boat, so photo opportunities were limited. P

The unforgettable experience was totally worth it. I just missed diving and seeing some fish, I thought I would do it in a cave or another area and that I would be guided. The only thing they offered us was to jump into the sea to swim (in the middle of the ocean) and they would give you a diving scale if you wanted, but I didn't see anything really.
