About this activity
Portimao: Sunset Tour takes you along the limestone coast to the sea caves and arches that cannot be reached on foot. It leaves from Faro area, so you are close to the Ria Formosa lagoon and the walled old town before anything starts. It runs late in the day, into the evening. It uses a small boat, so it can go into the narrower gaps in the rock. Prices start at €18.6 per person, and we list every seller carrying it side by side so you can see who is cheapest today.
The cave systems along this stretch of the Algarve, Benagil included, are the reason most people come to the water here.
The activity itself runs for about 3 hours, and you should allow roughly 3 hours 45 minutes in total once travel to and from the meeting point is counted. You meet at Faro area. It is run in English and Portuguese.
It suits families, groups, low mobility. The pace is moderate. Most people manage it comfortably. It is weather dependent, so book early in your trip and you will have days spare if the sea gets up.
