Additional Information

Embark on a catamaran from Albufeira Marina to Benagil cave. Here, we’ll stop our boat and begin a 3.5-hour tour. Join your guide for kayaking to explore the bays, beaches, and caves between Benagil and the famous Marinha beach.

IMPORTANT: You’ll have the opportunity to explore the interior of the Benagil cave during the tour. However, walking inside the cave is prohibited as it is now a protected area.

If the waters are calm, we’ll pause at a small beach for a refreshing swim in the sea. Later, re-board the catamaran for another swim before returning to the marina.

While this kayak tour is relaxing, it does require some physical effort. If you ever wish to return to the catamaran, it will always remain close by.

Great way to see the caves - Really good value and so much fun. The guides were friendly and the boat ride to get to the caves took you past some of the stunning coast line. The kayaking was great (2 people in each), you got to go in and see the Bengali cave and they also took you through some smaller dark caves which was really cool !!

Easy, Entertaining and totally enjoyable - Great way to get a glimpse of the coastline and caves. Kayaking is hands down the best mod of transportation. The crew, Jamie, Miguel and Christophe were very supportive, fun and played great tunes.

Excellent Kayaking trip - The trip was excellent. Expertly taken into (but remained in kayaks) the Benagil cave. Great crew - a great morning on the sea. Kayaked in and out of other caves, stopped along the way for a swim and drink then made our way to the boat where we had a chance to jump off boat and into the sea for a swim.

Very enjoyable tour - We really enjoyed our tour. The guides - Victor and Miguel were wonderful. We loved going into the caves and the swim on the private beach. The pace was very relaxed and doable for everyone in the group. Thank you!

Unforgettable experience - Superb kayaking experience, visit several caves despite the strong tourist Attraction (of which we are part) the scenery is incredible. Out of season it must be even more incredible. The crew was friendly, very professional.

Don’t miss! - My family experienced both the Benagil cave kayak tour and the Dolphin and cave tours by Seacret. We saw dozens of dolphins and the caves, and our two kayakers were very happy as well. They also happened to see some dolphins along the coast. Both tours are highly recommended. I had read a lot of negative reviews about small boats vs big boats and tough seas, and concluded that a kayak tour was best, but my mom would not be able to kayak due to a back problem so I chose this tour as it included a boat she could stay on whil we kayaked. When we went to scout out the location and redeem our aviator voucher the day before (not necessary) the Seacret staff informed us that the katamaran carrying kayaks does not enter the caves and offered to rebook two of us on the dolphin and caves tour by speed boat. I mentioned I was worried it would be uncomfortable in a speed boat but they assured us that the water is calm in the morning for our 9:30 tour. Then they showed us how to enter the parking garage so my mom would not have to walk far. In the morning their guides moved us to a boat with families and made sure my mom was in a comfortable seat. The guide was a marine biologist. Great all around!

Way too crowded to enjoy the beauty of the caves. - Unfortunately this tour did not live up to the hype. This may very well be a much better experience during the spring or fall months, but it is by far way to crowded with both kayaks and boats that get dangerously close to shore to enjoy during the summer. I was hit by others in kayaks at least 3 times, the water is incredibly choppy due to all of the boats, and there’s a good chance an inexperienced kayaker could either get hit by a boat or pushed into the rocks because of the wake. Unless the local tourism bureau working with the police create a more organized and crowd controlled experience, I cannot recommend this tour. I still have bruises from the kayak collisions.
