Benagil Caves by RIB Boat
Benagil Caves by RIB Boat
Depart from the pier for a short transfer to Portimão Marina. After a safety briefing, board an uncovered rigid inflatable boat and begin the coastal journey eastward. The route passes the fishing village of Ferragudo and the historic castle overlooking the beach before continuing toward Carvoeiro. Along the way, observe the Algarve coastline from the water, with its cliffs, secluded sandy beaches, and rock formations shaped by the sea.
Continue toward Algar Seco and Benagil, where the boat enters a series of coastal grottoes. Inside the caves, view natural openings, sculpted limestone walls, and formations created through wind and marine erosion. Algar Seco and the Benagil caves are among the most photographed coastal locations in Portugal, and photography and video are permitted throughout the experience. The open boat allows uninterrupted views of the cliffs and shoreline, with no shaded areas or restroom facilities onboard.
After exploring the grottoes, cruise west along the same coastline toward Portimão, taking in further views of the beaches and cliffs from the water. On arrival at the marina, disembark the boat and rejoin the waiting vehicle for the return transfer to the pier.
Notes: The boat ride involves motion and bumpy conditions. The tour is not accessible to guests with limited mobility and is not suitable for pregnant guests, guests with back or neck issues, or those who suffer from seasickness. The minimum age is 10 years. Entrance to the grotto is subject to sea conditions, and the tour is subject to weather conditions. The uncovered rigid inflatable boat sits low on the water and provides no protection from sun, wind, or cooler air over the water. Spray may occur, and clothing and personal belongings may become wet, particularly when the sea is unsettled. Guests should secure hats, glasses, cameras, and mobile phones against wind, spray, and sudden boat movement. Comfortable shoes are recommended.
