Details

If you want to add value to your holiday in the Algarve, you can't miss this 2-hour boat trip to Benagil Cave! We start in Portimão and head straight to the famous Benagil Cave. On the way there, you can have a look at the many beautiful beaches and cliffs that the Algarve has to offer. As we travel in small boats, we are able to pass through narrow passages and caves, which is why we can also enter the Benagil Cave. We will stay enough time inside so you can admire the natural spectacle from up close and take photos. Our experienced guides will be happy to answer all your questions! Afterwards, if conditions allow, we can make a short swim stop at Praia da Marinha. Here you will have about 10 minutes to cool off and jump into the beautiful waters of the Algarve. On our way back to Portimão, if you are lucky, you might even see dolphins in their natural habitat!
