About this activity

A 2.5-hour boat tour from Vilamoura Marina to the popular Benagil caves, taking in coastal cliffs, beaches and rock formations with the chance of spotting dolphins en route.

It suits families, couples, groups. The pace is demanding, so a reasonable level of fitness helps. Minimum age is 4. It is weather dependent, so book early in your trip and you will have days spare if the sea gets up.

Flexible. Daytime departures; 2.5 hours.
