our activity was brilliant, especially thanks to our guide. It was not the experience we expected due to poor sea conditions preventing us from entering the caves however that of course was beyond anyone's control and the coastline alone was a beautiful experience and worth every penny.

We had a very good trip. David, our guide, was great. Very insightful and funny. We had a great time looking up and down the coast of Portugal. Unfortunately the sea was too choppy to explore the caves but even without this the trip was well worth it! Definitely recommend for anyone who wants to see Portugal from a different view point. If you are set on seeing the caves I would suggest going in the summer when the sea is calmer :)

Full description

At the chosen time we'll meet at the San Francisco de Portimão dock and board a boat to sail off on our sunset cruise.

We'll spend 1 hour and half sailing the Atlantic Ocean as we head towards the famous Benagil Cave, one of the most fascinating places in this part of southern Portugal. Get your cameras ready!

As night begins to fall, we'll marvel at a breathtaking sunset over the magnificent landscape. We'll also get to admire the Alfanzina Lighthouse as we approach Benagil Beach, one of the most special places on the Algarve coast.
