Exploring the Benagil caves by kayak is an unforgettable adventure that connects you in a unique way with the natural beauty of the Algarve. The kayak tour begins on a quiet beach, where you will receive a brief training on how to maneuver the kayak and safety measures. Then, paddling through the crystal clear waters, you will be guided along the rocky coastline, passing impressive rock formations and small hidden coves.
The main attraction of this tour is the majestic Benagil Cave, a sea cave famous for its opening in the roof, which lets in sunlight, creating a magical effect of natural lighting. Upon entering the cave, you are greeted by a small internal beach, where you can take photos and enjoy the spectacular view.
