Morning cave sup - Went on a sup tour with Marcio in the early morning. The weather and sea were perfect and not crowded at all! Visited some amazing caves and got picture perfect photos delivered afterwards!
Big plus: there are also kayaks available in the same tour!
Highly recommend to book the morning tour!

Great first time - This was my very first time supping and it was a great experience. I obviously fell in the water a few times but on our way back I was able to stand up for a while and enjoy it even more. Our guide was Marcio and he showed us nice places and also a good view.

Benagil Kayak: A plus tour!! - We had an amazing cave tour with Marcio and his team. They were all so helpful and continuously checked on each tour member to be sure we all were doing okay.
Marcio’s directions at each cave were very clear and he had many good suggestions to enhance the experience. He also took an astounding number of photos- completely documenting this amazing adventure!
In addition, he took the time to show us some starfish and ancient shells and mollusks embedded in the cave walls. Very informative! I would highly recommend Benagil Kayaks and Marcio and his team for this magical experience!

The best kayak tour in the Algarve - We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Upon arrival, the sea was a little choppy which made us uneasy as we hadn’t done this before, but we were very quickly reassured and made to feel calm and excited by our guides as they explained the different levels of the sea conditions. Our guide even gave us options as to which direction and caves we’d like to see first, which felt nice and personal. Given the sea conditions, we were very lucky to have the beautiful Benagil cave all to ourselves. I would recommend this trip to anyone, the guides will look after you, absolute legends!

Great experience, the best tour guides for kayaking in Algarve - 10/10 would recommend doing this tour with these guys! This kayak tour is amazing! The guides are very friendly and experienced locals and they show a lot of beautiful caves and cliffs. More than just Benegil!
They’re also continuously taking pictures (the best pictures 😉) of the kayakers which you get afterwards for free.
We had a great time and couldn’t believe our eyes with how beautiful the nature is. Again: thank you so much guys!

A highlight of our Portugal tour! - Super organized tour by two experienced guides who led us in a small group of just three couples 😄
Everything was thought of.
We didn't even have to worry about taking photos because Márcio recorded everything with a cell phone and a GoPro and then sent it to us via WeTransfer.
In the Benagil Cave, Márcio also explained a lot to us and even showed us insider information, such as petrified fossils in the rock walls and ceilings, which you would never have noticed without a guide.
The kayaking was great fun and I would recommend the tour with Márcio to everyone 👍

THE BEST ! - Thank you Marcio for this unforgettable experience! You're the best!
We rented a kayak and 2 SUPs, Fabio and Marcio were very helpful, they gave us the full gear and all the instructions needed. When we stopped in the cave he explained the history of it. And not forgetting that he took great photos of us with his phone and his gopro. Thank you again for this great tour and experience! Sending love all the way from Lebanon 🇱🇧♥️
