“Tour guide was awesome - loved the caves!!! Very well organized and beautiful location. Can’t wait to receive the photos”
Paddle into Benagil Cave from Carvalho Beach on a small-group SUP tour with guides, 4K photos, hidden caves, and Marinha views.
“Everyone says you should do things early in the morning, but this cave is the perfect example. We did the SUP tour at 6:30 AM and it was absolutely incredible. We had good weather which helped a lot and Com sees but being in that cave without anybody else is pretty magical. Our Guide was so knowledgeable about the region and geology, but also just a lot of fun and made us feel supported. I highly recommend it. It was a small group of five women and everyone had a great time.”
Explore Benagil Cave by SUP or kayak on a small-group tour with local guides, GoPro photos, safety gear, and useful Algarve coast tips.
“I give 5 star to this experience because of our guide Fabio which provides informations and guidance that enriches this tour a lot! Otherwise I would give it at least a 4,5* because this is an incredible experience (you don’t get to explore Algarve this way everyday) but the time you spend inside the cave (the one you see on every pictures) is not very long (a couple minutes) because there is sooo much tourists, kayaks, boats, etc. But you get to see other caves which is veryyyy cool! Make sure you arrive in advance because parking can be tricky over there and also, please, make sure you are comfortable…”
