The activity was sight for sore eyes. The tour guides picked us on time. He had to train some people as well so we were with more than expected, however I preferred this more. It gave a dynamic that was more chill and had more laughs in between. The guides were talkative. It felt like a made friend along the way. They answered every question I had. The tour guide is very knowledgeable about the island and portugal. I learned so much! This tour I totally recommend and I am going to recommend this so much of my friends and family when visiting Lisboa. Muito obrigado!!

Great. All well-organised, Nunu was great and loved the islands. The glass bottomed boat tour was also cool, and the beach on the island was nice

Full description

On this full-day excursion you'll start at the city of Peniche, a traditional fishing village, where you'll find a boat waiting to take your group to Berlenga Island.

After arriving at the island, you’ll then board a smaller boat in order to see St. John the Baptist Fort. Built in the 17th century, the fort was an important part of the shore defence system. Hear stories about the brave soldiers who defended it during the attack by the Spanish fleet.

Take a walk back to the port along the authorized paths of the nature reserve, admiring the amazing views in this UNESCO Biosphere Heritage Site. At the port, you’ll have some free time for lunch (not included), or for a quick swim or snorkeling (equipment provided) at the beach nearby. There is just 1 restaurant on the Island, but it is of good quality and fresh fish is always available.

If you bring a snack with you on the trip, you’ll find the island’s only beach just steps away. Snorkeling here is a good option, as undersea life is abundant and the waters are calm. After lunch, you’ll have a chance to kayak around the island if you like.

The island cliffs are full of caves, and you can kayak through them. For the less active, there’s the option of touring the caves in a small glass-bottom boat.

Afterwards, you’ll head back the mainland for the return trip to Lisbon.

Includes

  • Round-trip minivan transfers from Lisbon
  • Boat ride to and from the island
  • Boat transfer to St. John the Baptist Fort
  • Snorkeling equipment
  • Boat tour of the island’s caves and cliffs
  • Lunch
  • Kayak rental at the island

  • It not recommended that you book the tour on weekends as the Island gets a little crowded during the summer
  • The climate conditions do not always allow the tour to operate, and can even change while you're on the island
  • Don’t forget your towel, swimsuit, and sunscreen
  • Wear comfortable shoes, as you will do some walking on steep paths
  • You may bring your own lunch if you like, as there is only 1 restaurant available
