Benagil Caves Cruise + BBQ

On this cruise tour from Portimão, you'll visit the Benagil Caves, the most famous sea grottos in the Algarve, and enjoy a barbecue on the beach.

Benagil Caves Cruise + BBQ

At 10 am, we'll set sail from the Vasco da Gama dock in Portimão to the Benagil Caves.

During this sea adventure in the south of Portugal aboard the catamaran Ophelia, we'll sail off the coast of Ferragudo, seeing Praia Grande and the Fort of São João along the way. After viewing these sites, we'll continue the crossing along the coast of Alvor Seco. We will dock in front of the Benagil Caves for exploration with small boats provided for you.

We will then disembark in one of the coves in Benagil. While the crew prepares lunch on the beach, you will have free time for swimming and paddle surfing. The menu includes a barbecue featuring different grilled meats, bread, traditional Algarve salad, and seasonal fruit, along with an open bar providing white or red wine, orange soda, or mineral water.

After lunch, we'll return to the boat and head back to Portimão, arriving at the departure dock at 4 pm.

Itinerary Changes

In case of adverse weather conditions, the maritime police may prohibit access to the Benagil Caves. If this occurs, you will have more time for swimming, aquatic sports, and the barbecue on the beach.
