Visiting the Bengali Cave, Marinha Beach, the Seven Hanging Valleys, and Algar Seco was an unforgettable experience. The stunning sea and rock scenery left me in awe. Eduardo, our guide, was exceptional—knowledgeable, organized, and gifted with great photography skills and humor. At the start, we each received a chocolate bar, water, and tissues—a thoughtful touch. Celebrating my birthday during the trip was extra special as Eduardo surprised me with a chocolate muffin, candle, confetti. Eduardo, Nicolás, and two others sang “Happy Birthday” in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, which truly made my day. Eduardo shared fascinating facts about wildlife, guided us to breathtaking spots, and took amazing photos of everyone. He even amazed us by swimming and jumping from a cliff into the cold Atlantic—spectacular and brave! This trip was filled with laughter, learning, and stunning views. I’m grateful for Eduardo and my fellow travelers. I highly recommend this unforgettable journey.

had a great time seeing all the different caves along the coast and we managed to spot dolphins. warning though make sure you take a coat/jacket if going in the winter even if it's 21 degrees as out on the boat it's freezing! thankfully the guide found us a jacket to borrow
