Nice but poor time management

Arrive 30 min early if you need to find parking Then an additional 30 min to form the group and get the equipment, go down to the beach. But on the water and in the caves it is worth it

Bucket List Worthy!

This was one of the highlights of my trip to Portugal. Seeing the Benagil caves, the hidden beach, and the Algarve coastline was absolutely incredible. I had some unexpected transportation issues getting there and thought I was going to miss the tour, but the team was so understanding and flexible and helped make it work. I really appreciated how kind and accommodating they were. The guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and made safety a priority, even when the waves got a little challenging. They also took photos along the way, which meant we could just enjoy the experience. Definitely one of the most memorable things I did in Portugal. Highly recommend!

A wonderful experience

The experience has been great, I loved it and we enjoyed it a lot. The guides (Rubén and another guy, as they introduced themselves), did not give us any information or explanation during the trip, I mean, it said we had a Spanish-speaking guide, but it would have been the same if it were in Chinese, he just accompanied us and that was it. There are many other companies and the guides were explaining things. But I repeat that the experience is wonderful, I would do it again without a doubt. There is a bit of overcrowding of kayak companies at the same time, everything is full of kayaks and boats as can be seen in the photos.

Stay away, even if it seems cheap....

Confusing, bad parking...mass tourism...also not entirely safe, especially for children.

Victim of overexploitation

Nice experience because of the nature you visit. The problem is that it is overcrowded and overexploited. Parking is also a frustrating and impossible odyssey. Colossal natural spectacle but I would not repeat it. Too much stress for a vacation.

Excellent experience,...

Excellent experience, special thanks to our guide Ibra, who with his cheerful character and friendliness made the adventure very pleasant and safe for us, as he took the rising tide into account at that moment to access the caves safely. Surprises during the journey that left us delighted.

Benagil up close

We arrived about half an hour early at the meeting point. Staff is helpful and clear with information. Possibility to leave your bags in a semi-guarded area. A waterproof kayak bag is provided to put phones etc. in. Beautiful kayak excursion of about 2h for people who love the sea. There are many people and many excursions, but I still really enjoyed just sitting still from time to time to admire the landscape. The guys were very helpful and attentive to every need. Absolutely recommended over the boat tour

Kindness and laughter

We were there on August 10 and our experience was a 10, our guide Ibra was very nice and professional, always looking out for everyone. My biggest fear was entering a cave with the tide rising, and their professionalism is evident in dividing us into small groups to avoid risky situations. Their kindness and cheerful character made us love it, we would definitely do it again.
