About this tour

Carvoeiro Coastline & Marinha Caves Boat Tour (from Carvoeiro)

Ages: 5+ | Duration: 1h30

Discover one of the Algarve’s most breathtaking coastlines on a shared boat tour departing from Praia do Carvoeiro, exploring dramatic cliffs, hidden beaches and an impressive network of sea caves. Formed over millions of years by the Atlantic Ocean, this region is home to some of the most iconic natural landmarks in Portugal, including the famous Benagil Cave, often described as one of the most beautiful natural “cathedrals” in the world. Along the route, you will cruise through 17 caves, where sunlight reflects through openings in the rock, creating stunning colours and unforgettable scenery. During this trip you will pass by Algar Seco and “A Boneca” rock formation, see the Alfanzina lighthouse and discover Praia da Marinha and it’s beautiful natural arches. 

Special tip ❤️: Mid-morning tours usually offer the best light entering the caves, enhancing colours and photo opportunities.

Must do tour in the area!

A must tour to do in the area. Chose this tour instead of the competition as we thought they are more established, but to be honest there is not different between the two. So many caves and cute beaches to see scattered around the coastline! Pleasantly surprised by the tour guides also, quite entertaining and informative (despite doing this so many times!) Went with our 6 and 1 yr olds early morning to prevent rough seas (bigger waves in the afternoon which make off boarding on the beach more difficult). One less positive thing was the grumpy guys at check in, I guess was too early morning :)

Safe and Fun

I had originally booked the tour from Carvoeiro but due to sea conditions, it was cancelled. The company called me and offered me a trip from Portimao. It was easy as they also had a transfer service by car from Carvoeiro to Portimao. The trip took a little less than two hours. The guide and the boat captain seemed to be in control throughout. Please know that this is not a 'cruise' as the sea does get bumpy and you can get sprayed. But I felt safe and enjoyed the tour. On my way back once on land, they even made a small detour to drop me off at the train station in Portimao.
