Full description
From this moment 10/09/2023, we have been informed, by local authorities, that no one can entre the Benagil cave itself. This means that we are only allowed to show you the cave from the boat. We will show you other beautiful spots and caves a long the coastline while kayaking. Always with safety in mind and when sea conditions permits. Uncover the treasures of Benagil's coast on a stand-up paddle or kayak tour from Albufeira. Follow your guide to hidden caves and secluded beaches, and enjoy a drink on your boat ride back to the marina. Start your Benagil tour and depart from Albufeira Marina on a specially-built boat. Enjoy the stunning views of the coastline as you sail in the boat for 40 minutes, before stopping and transferring to the Kayak or SUPs. You can choose to paddleboard and embrace the freedom to move around. You can reposition yourself to wherever you feel comfortable, standing up or on your knees. Have a safe and rewarding experience regardless of age or skill level. Alternatively, you can ride in a single kayak or double kayak. Gain confidence even as a beginner with a water safety briefing from your guide before starting the tour. Take a dive in the ocean before returning to the marina by boat, where you can enjoy a cool drink on board.

Honestly loved this activity. The guides and people on tour were so lovely had an amazing experience couldn’t fault the service. Had a good laugh and was shown some beautiful caves…unfortunately we were unable to enter Benagil cave due to the law changing but still had a glance from the boat & would recommend doing this if you’re planning to stay at Albufeira. Affordable, fun and reliable.

Had a really great time and the best thing we did! On arrival we were told that we were no longer able to paddle board/go onto the beach in the Benagil caves and only see from the boat so was unsure the experience would be as advertised BUT we were able to go into many other caves and go along the beautiful coastline, it was 10/10. The team who took us round were also great and helped make the experience!

We did this in the afternoon. The temperature was hot which made the boat ride comfortable. The actual Benagil Cave is seriously crowded. I suspect it’s better to go in the morning to reduce crowds and to have better light in the cave. We really enjoyed the kayaking along the shoreline after the main cave. It was less people, more relaxed, and the views and rock formations were awesome. That was the highlight of the trip. We did this with 2 children (8 and 10) that are experienced boaters and comfortable on the water and my very active mother in law in her mid-70s. The water is rough due to boat traffic. This is fine for kids to do as long as they have some experience and comfort on the ocean. My 10 year old was very tired from paddling at the end. I went on a double kayak with the younger child and she did fine because I did most of the paddling. Definitely recommend this tour over just a boat ride.
