Great day out - Great day out with a fantastic lunch, beautiful views and brilliant on board staff. A couple hours out at sea and then a couple hours to eat and get in the sea or use the stand up paddle boards (there are 2) and sunbathe / enjoy the open bar, definitely worth the price

Fun Catamaran Tour! - We had a great day on the catamaran. They arranged a pick up for us in Lagos which was quite helpful. The boat was clean and the staff was friendly. We had good weather after the morning had been a little cloudy with a bit of rain. It was a great way to see the coast and the caves. The lunch was good and it was nice to spend time on the beach. The beach time could have been a bit shorter. It seemed that most people were ready to get back on the boat an hour before we did. Take your towel and wear your bathing suit to the beach lunch so you can swim and have your towel to sit on. There are umbrellas to shade from the sun but no chairs on the beach. We went on the tour mid October and the water was still nice and refreshing for swimming.

Amazing Crew, Stunning Caves & a Beach BBQ to Remember! - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had such a great day on the boat trip from Portimão! The crew were amazing – super friendly and couldn’t do enough for everyone. The stop at the beach was definitely the highlight, with a delicious BBQ cooked right there on the sand. The Benagil Caves were stunning too. Everything was really well organised and relaxed at the same time. Highly recommend this trip – such a fun and memorable way to spend the day!
