Additional Information

The renowned Benagil Caves in the Algarve are a popular destination for boat tours, but, our exciting do-it-yourself kayak tour lets you explore these spectacular caves up close.

Join us as we provide a quick briefing to explain the sights you’ll see, safety conditions, and distribute the necessary equipment. The adventure begins from Praia de Benagil, at your own pace.

Upon reaching the cave, you have the opportunity to leave the kayak and take numerous photos, stepping on the sands and exploring freely – an option that is not available on a boat tour.

Your journey will also take you past Praia da Marinha, the rugged coastline, and several secluded beaches.
Navigate at your own convenience; your destination is entirely your choice!

Great Fun - The guide and the service were perfect! Fortunately our group was very small, just the guide and us with two kayaks. Not as the other groups with 10+ kayaks. But be aware, that it is very crowded in summer. But nevertheless it was a great fun.

A wonderful way to explore the coastal beaches and caves of Benagil Beach. - Our self-guided kayak tour on the coast began at the Praia Benagil. The tour operator's representative waited patiently while we moved our car to the parking lot, re-packed our belongings into the dry bag, and the bay they watched while we were on our journey. They provided the lifevests, kayak, drybag, and excellent directions. We were a bit slow on our evening return as the motorboats in the area made us move more slowly and cautiously. Incredible views.

Victor and Diogo were excellent guides! - Victor and Diogo were excellent guides! We were very fortunate to be one of the first tours of the season - which had the benefit of visiting the cave alone. We are not experienced sea-kayakers but felt safe in their care. If an area was not safe enough due to sea conditions they would substitute a different point of interest which showed their professionality and concern for our safety. Along the way, we got a mix of history, geology, culture and lore in what was undoubtedly a highlight of our vacation. Thank you Victor and Diogo!
