Discover a little-known paradise in the Atlantic Ocean on this boat tour to the Berlengas Islands. Admire the landscapes of Berlenga Grande and explore its natural caves.

Berlengas Islands & Caves Boat Tour

At the scheduled time, we'll meet at Peniche Marina to start our boat tour to the Berlengas Islands. We'll set sail for a 30-minute cruise to the archipelago aboard a catamaran, observing the marine life in the waters off the coast of Portugal. The Berlengas Islands are a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, featuring remarkable underwater plants and wildlife.

Upon reaching Berlenga Grande, we'll transfer to a smaller boat with a glass bottom to visit the natural sea caves. We will take a 30-minute cruise to see the São João Batista Cave, the Blue Grotto, and the Furado Grande, which is a 70-metre natural tunnel leading to a bay. During the remaining free time, you'll be able to explore the island via different trails.

After approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes of cruising around the Berlengas Islands, we'll return to Peniche Marina to conclude the tour.
