Good for avoiding crowds
Many people visit the famous Benagil Caves in the Algarve on a boat tour, but this exciting tour takes you inside these natural formations by kayak. Join a small group and set off from Benagil Beach for the cave system adventure. Once you reach the grotto, you can step out of your kayak and take lots of pictures of the natural skylight, something you can't do on a boat tour.
- Paddle past Praia da Marinha and the rocky coastline
- Choose from multiple tour times to suit your schedule
- All necessary kayaking equipment is provided
- A small group means more attention from your guide

Thrillingly Amazing

Zach, Hugo and Sean made of all comfortable and thrilled for the experience we had with kayaking, which was our first time. Not to mention they were funny and very clear with instructions that we needed to take in for safety precautions. I would 100% recommend this for anyone and everyone

Super experience. We had 2 boys aged 9 and 11. Mike was great as were the whole team. Especially liked the kids first into and out of caves and beach. 2 good hours rowing and exploring caves and it’s very doable. So much fun. Our youngest was 9 and loved it. And to Adam (our Irish rep from Mayfield) Slan go fóill from the kids.
An amazing experience, a must do!

What a day!! Incredible. The tour was organized great. Our guides Dash, Paco and Sanchez worked as an amazing team. We went into caves that you'd never find on your own or be confident to enter. They were helpful and patient. Great value. I recommend going in the morning before the crowds come. Spent the afternoon on the beach.
Although the weather...

Although the weather conditions weren’t ideal, the team made us feel very safe and changed the trip to ensure our safety. Adam was amazing, friendly, informative, checking in with us along the route and took us to amazing places. The cave was beautiful and we had enough time to enjoy the scenery and take pictures. Highly recommend the tour.
A fantastic day kayaking

We researched lots of kayaking tours before selecting Secret Algarve. We were glad we did. On our day, the seas were a bit rough, but the tour guides did a great job keeping us all together and managing the large numbers. They ensured safe and fun trip despite some tough conditions. The location is a bit challenging to find. You meet near the top of the hill - not at the beach. Also, even though they provide a dry bag, you really don't need to take anything with you on teh kayaking - leave it in your car or in their lockers. The trip itself is some work, but the sights are great and it is a very good experience. Total trip time, including orientation, launch, and returning up the hill was longer than expected. Believe our guides included Yugo and Evil (but apologize if we messed up the names)

Perfect but not for us

The staff is very nice, friendly funny, helpful there nothing to say about that they were perfect! The experience however was bit too "mass tourism oriented" for our tastes. Groups are randomly made without taking kayaking experience or physical conditions into account. We had to wait for the rest of the group a lot, and wasted a lot of the tour time. So again for our own expectations not appropriate but for for families with kids for instance, or first timer with apprehension this is perfect
What an experience!

Everyone from back home told us we needed to visit Benagil and see the caves and I’m so happy we did. The organizers were funny, insightful and made sure we were we safe and in good hands from beginning to end. I would highly recommend booking with this group - you won’t regret it! We booked the 1030am tour I would recommend going in the morning for less chop and direct sun/heat.
Phenomenal

Excellent Guides Despite Rough Seas
Wesley_H
, May 2022
Diogo and Adam were excellent guides. The seas ended up quite rough, so they surveyed every cave and passageway ahead of the group to check for safety and cautiously avoided taking the group through anywhere remotely dangerous. Diogo led the group and Adam was sag support. Another group had a kayak flip in a dark cave and they even rushed to help recover them, really great guides and a great experience overall. Passing through the elephant arches was one of the coolest moments, and obviously Benagil algar was the highlight of the trip. 10/10!
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
