The Private Boat Tour is the best way to visit the caves as it combines comfort, privacy, versatility and lots of fun! The boat and staff will be at your service to ensure you have everything you need.
The Benagil Caves are worldwide known due to it's beauty and breathtaking views! We depart from Portimão and go along the coast until Praia da Marinha to visit all the 20 beautiful caves and beaches! As we use these lower boats, it's possible to do inside the smaller caves to visit and take pictures!
Get to know all the hidden secrets in our coast at your pace and take all the photos you want! The boats we use are very safe as they have a zodiac model with air compartments that give stability, not allowing it to shake much, and as they are low, it's possible to enter in all the caves for you to capture their uniqueness! Our professional skippers passionate about the sea and our local guides will reveal the best Algarve has to offer!!

We had a great morning by boat along the coast. Our guides Miguel and Pedro were super friendly and told us a lot about the coast and its history. At the end they also stepped on the gas, which our guys really liked. I can only recommend the tour.

A great experience! A magnificent boat ride of one hour, with the discovery of the caves. Pedro and Nano were on top: welcoming, friendly and passionate. You can feel that they like to share their piece of paradise. An exotic outing, well organized and full of good humor. I highly recommend!

The boat tour of the caves was fun and informative! Our guide Manuel and our captain, Pedro were friendly and polite and took the time to find a well fitted life vest for our young granddaughter. The caves are beautiful and Manuel was a wonderful guide, full of information that made the experience that much better.
