Kayak from Benagil Beach into famous caves, visit Marinha and Carvalho, and enjoy a guided Algarve adventure with a free shower.

“We had an amazing time in this tour, definetly the best choice! To start, everything was very well organized in terms of logistics and timing. During the trip we felt safe, always with our guides guiding us and watching if everyone in the group was being able to keep up. During the 2h tour we saw plenty of beautiful caves and beaches and the guides even offered to take our pictures (they turned out super nice so props for the photographer skills). For me, one of the points that made this an unforgettable experience: the guides themselves: first, extremely professional, knew very well the history of the itinerary and the…”

Top tip: go out on the first tour at 8:45am and you will be the only ones out there. As we were coming back it was packed with boats, kayakers, tourists etc which would have spoilt the whole feel. Would totally recommend this very professional company and guides.”

“Even though the conditions weren’t perfect that day — with high tide and some waves, which meant we couldn’t enter every cave — the experience was absolutely amazing! The scenery along the coast was breathtaking, and exploring the caves from the kayak felt truly special. Our guide Ibra was incredible — super friendly, funny, and full of positive energy.

Review of SecretAlgarve’s Benagil Cave kayak tour from Portimão, with itinerary, value, safety, family tips, weather advice, and what to expect.

“It was a great experience overall, however, the excursion itinerary wasn’t as described. We did not stop at any beaches off of the kayak. I don’t believe we went by the dog beach or pirate beach, at least we were not told. We were in the kayak the whole time. Important to know: you cannot disembark out of the kayak when you get to the benagil caves. The tour guide said this is a new regulation, which we fully understand respect but the description of the ad should be changed to say this just so you aren’t disappointed when you get there. This being said, still had a great time…”

“As a solo female traveler, I was a bit nervous about joining the Ponta da Piedade Caves Kayak Tour, especially wondering how they’d fit me in and worrying about my lack of experience. But honestly, this was one of the best parts of my trip! When I got there, I noticed most people were in pairs, which didn’t help my nerves, but then a trio showed up, and the mood instantly lightened. The staff was warm and welcoming, which made a huge difference. I ended up paired with one of the trio, and our guide, Ricardo (who totally looks like Adam Sandler!), was fantastic. He made sure I felt comfortable…”
