Benagil Caves Speedboat Ride

At the chosen time, we'll meet at the São Francisco dock, near the convent. There we'll hop on a boat and set off on our boat trip to the fascinating Benagil Caves. Over the course of an hour and a half, we'll sail the Atlantic to see the natural wonders of Portugal.

We'll also see the iconic Farol de Alfanzina lighthouse, which was built in 1920. Then we'll head towards Benagil Beach, considered one of the most beautiful beaches on the Algarve coast.

After 1.5 hours together, the speedboat trip will come to an end back at the dock in Portimão.

Important

It is forbidden to swim or leave the boat when inside the caves.

Sighting of dolphins is not guaranteed.

The itinerary may vary due to adverse weather and sea conditions.

Petit bémol entre le point de check in et le point de rencontre à 5 mn à pieds sur une place où plusieurs tour opérateur sont présents.. ensuite classement en fonction des nationalités, nous n’étions que 10 français, bateau adapté au nombre, donc petit pour nous (les anglophones étaient 36…), guide francophone très sympa et visite de la côte et des sites parfaite.

Maravilloso paseo en lancha con la maravillosa piloto María y el genial guía Eddie. Sin duda alguna repetiría con ellos por su conocimiento de los lugares en la actualidad y su historia, las explicaciones interesantes y María por su conocimiento del mar y su manejo de la lancha.

Fue una experiencia increíble. El capitán Nuno y nuestro guia Carlos Silva hicieron muy ameno el recorrido. La mar estaba picada y nos advirtieron que no podríamos ir a ver de cerca las cuevas de benagil, pero aún así fue una increíble experiencia. Lo recomendamos muchísimo, y seguramente volveremos en un futuro y volveremos a escogerlos a ellos. GRACIAS. Translate this opinion into English.

It was an incredible experience. Captain Nuno and our guide Carlos Silva made the trip very enjoyable. The sea was rough and we were warned that we would not be able to see the Benagil caves up close, but it was still an incredible experience. We highly recommend it, and we will surely return in the future and choose them again. THANK YOU. Opinion translated. Show original.

Una elección perfecta. Recorrido precioso, María que nos explicaba en Español. Es un encanto, divertida y hace única la experiencia. Sin duda repetiría nuevamente este recorrido. El capitán del barco es un auténtico máquina y lleva el barco súper bien. Se acerca muchísimo a las cuevas, para que la experiencia sea aún mejor. Volveré! Translate this opinion into English.

A perfect choice. A beautiful tour, Maria explained everything in Spanish. She is charming, fun and makes the experience unique. I would definitely repeat this tour again. The captain of the boat is a real genius and drives the boat super well. He gets very close to the caves, making the experience even better. I will be back! Opinion translated. Show original.

La excursión ha sido de 10. Hemos salido encantados con Simón y Phillipe y su capitán Xico. Además de indicarnos los detalles de lo que íbamos viendo a lo largo del recorrido, han hecho un viaje muy ameno y divertido. Y ni que decir tiene, el paisaje, es espectacular. Es de agradecer que se preocupen de que haya tripulación que puedan explicar el recorrido en varios idiomas. Translate this opinion into English.
