Mark and Andre took us on an amazing ride to the caves! We had a small group on the boat but they still shared all they could about the cliffs, the history of the area, the erosion, the recent weather damage and answered all our questions without hesitation! Sadly, due to recent significant rainfall, no one was allowed to go IN the Bengagil Cave as the damage had to be officially inspected before taking boats in. We had a wonderful trip and would do it again without hesitation!
A must- do in the Algarve

Andre and Martin were a great crew. We saw and explored several caves and even went through one. This was a great way to get on the water and enjoy the beautiful coastline!

We had an amazing time on our boat trip in the Algarve, thanks to our fantastic guides, Martim and André. The experience was fun, relaxed, and well-organized. They were knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about the area, sharing great information about the coastline, caves, and local history while keeping the vibe light and enjoyable. The views were absolutely stunning, and they made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable the entire time. You can tell they genuinely care about giving guests a great experience. Highly recommend this trip if you’re visiting the Algarve—it was a highlight of our trip!
It was a great experience!

What a fun experience, and we saved lots of $$ over the cruise line excursion price. Very well organized! Our captain was awesome and his "first mate" was a great tour guide. We saw some amazing caves and remote beaches in the area.
Great tour on the water with history of caves and views for miles.

This was an awesome small tour with people who knew the area and the history of the caves. The day on the water was spectacular as well and gave us insight into where to go next as we saw other small villages on our water tour. Be careful at check-in though because there are several tour companies operating out of the same location.
Loved it!

We had a great morning! The caves are very cool and interesting. Our guide, Martine, I believe was very good and the driver of the boat did an excellent job. Definitely recommend. Perfect size boat for viewing the caves.
