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…”
