Thank you for your review.
Easy to find from the cruise ship terminal. 10 min walk. The boat holds about 11/12 people including 2 skippers. It was full on our trip. There is 1 seat where you can protect yourself from the sun a little, with an overhead canopy. Life vests are worn throughout, which is necessary but can make you extra hot. The trip stops along coast with the skipper pointing out certain areas of interest. The boat goes into approx 3 or 4 caves with a description given. The last cave is the famous Bengali cave which is spectacular. The boat then heads a bit further out and picks up speed with a faster trip back. The boat then pulls into a secluded beach area where you can get off the boat for a swim if you choose. A bottle of water was provided (extra was available when asked) and a bowl of crisps is put out for guests to share. Overall a good trip considering the cost. I’m glad I went but wouldn’t do it again.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re pleased to hear that you enjoyed the trip, particularly visiting the spectacular Benagil Cave, and that you considered the experience good value for money. However, we feel your review does not fully reflect the experience provided. During the tour, we visit seven caves, including Benagil Cave, and provide explanations about the coastline and its points of interest. Our tours are limited to a maximum of 12 guests, allowing us to offer a more personal experience and access areas that larger boats cannot easily reach. Life jackets are required throughout the tour for everyone’s safety, even during the warm Algarve summer. We also include a swimming stop whenever sea and weather conditions allow, and fresh water is available throughout the trip. We always welcome constructive feedback, but we believe it is important that reviews accurately represent the full experience. We’re sorry that some aspects of the tour did not meet your expectations, but we hope you were still able to enjoy the caves, coastline and time spent on the water. Best wishes, Blue Ocean Trips
We truly enjoyed this tour. We left early and were able to get into the caves before all of the others boats arrived. Outdoor guides were very personable. The others tours crammed people in the boats and were quick in and out of the caves not giving time to really take it in.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted that you truly enjoyed the experience. Keeping our groups small and leaving early whenever possible is exactly what we aim for. It gives our guests the opportunity to experience the caves before they become busy and, most importantly, to have enough time inside to really appreciate their beauty rather than simply rushing in and out. We’re also very happy to hear that you enjoyed the company of our guides. We love sharing the Algarve coastline and its amazing caves with our guests in a relaxed and personal way. Thank you for choosing Blue Ocean Trips and for highlighting what makes our small-group tours special. We hope to welcome you aboard again one day! Best wishes, Blue Ocean Trips
The two people were super attentive and pleasant, I recommend 100%. The route was very beautiful 😊
¡Muchísimas gracias por tu comentario y por recomendarnos al 100%! 😊 Nos alegra mucho saber que disfrutaste de la ruta y, sobre todo, que te sentiste bien atendido durante la experiencia. Para nosotros es muy importante ofrecer un trato cercano y hacer que cada salida sea especial. ¡Gracias por elegir Blue Ocean Trips y esperamos volver a verte a bordo algún día!
It was great. Victor our tour guide was amazing took us to multiple caves told us the history showed us the beautiful landscapes and stopped for a refreshing swim
Thank you so much for your review.
One of the best experiences of my life, Victor and Riccardo were absolutely amazing, very knowledgeable and great friends to make!
Thank you so much for such an amazing review! 😊 It really means a lot to us to hear that you consider the trip one of the best experiences of your life! Best regards, Vitor.
This trip deserves more than 5 stars! We loved having a small group of only 8 people on board our boat. The caves were gorgeous, but what really stood out was the fantastic customer service. Due to our cruise changing itinerary, I had to change our tour time the day before and they were super accommodating. And to top if all off, when our tender boat was late and we were afraid we would not make it on time, the captain personally drove over to the port to pick us up. Now that's impressive!
Thank you so much for this wonderful review! It really means a lot to me. I know how stressful it can be when a cruise itinerary changes or a tender arrives late, especially when you have a tour booked. I was more than happy to adjust the time and come over to the port to pick you up. For me, looking after my guests is just as important as showing them our beautiful coastline and caves. I’m really happy that you enjoyed the small-group experience. Keeping our tours personal, relaxed and uncrowded is exactly what Blue Ocean Trips is all about. It was a real pleasure having you on board, and thank you again for trusting us with part of your time in the Algarve. Hopefully our paths will cross again someday! All the best, Vitor Blue Ocean Trips
Great tour! So glad I came upon this tour. Was very happy with our boat, captain and guide. Wonderful experience with a small group. He was able to time the caves so there wasn’t any crowds. Felt very safe and loved the smaller boat to get into the caves. Would 100% recommend this tour!!! Thank you!
Hello Melani, thank you so much for your review, and we are so glad you enjoyed the trip with us. Best regards, Vitor Hugo
Fantastic experience with ocean trips from Portimão! Friendly and helpful guide We left at 9, and I must say that the strength of this time is the almost total absence of other boats. Benagil is worth it, but I must say that the other coves hold up quite well in comparison!
Grazie mille per la tua recensione, siamo davvero felici che tu abbia apprezzato il nostro viaggio e il tempo che abbiamo trascorso da soli a Benagil. Cordiali saluti, Vitor
We enjoyed very much this beautiful morning tour along the coast. The cliffs, caves and beaches are really worth seeing. Victor, the captain, was very helpful and knowledgeable.
