      Benagil Cave and Algarve Coast Guided Boat Tour from Armação de Pêra

      From the Fisherman's Beach to the Alfanzina Lighthouse — caves, secret beaches, and coastal wonders await.

      This guided Benagil Cave boat tour sets off from Armação de Pêra and travels along one of the most dramatic stretches of the Algarve coastline, stopping at 15 caves and 15 beaches in just 90 minutes.

      Departing from the Fisherman's Beach, the route passes through secluded coves and sea arches that are inaccessible by land, giving passengers a perspective of the coast that few visitors ever experience. The journey culminates near the Alfanzina Lighthouse before returning to the starting point.

      The route includes the iconic Benagil Cave, the Blue Eyes Tunnel, and lesser-known formations such as the Turtle and Hippopotamus Cave, as well as the celebrated Marinha Beach and the Chapel of Nossa Senhora da Rocha. Each stop offers a distinct character shaped by centuries of wave erosion along this limestone coastline.

      A qualified captain leads every departure, and life jackets are provided to all passengers. Children are welcome on board when accompanied by at least one adult, and the company operates with an animal-friendly policy throughout.

      Tour Highlights

      Enter the famous Benagil Cave by boat, one of the most visited sea caves in Portugal, without joining crowded on-foot routes.

      Pass through the Blue Eyes Tunnel, a striking sea formation that leaves most visitors speechless on first sight.

      Visit 15 caves and 15 beaches along the Algarve coast, including secluded spots only reachable by sea.

      Discover hidden sea formations such as the Turtle and Hippopotamus Cave and the Paradise Cave along the route.

      Pass by the historic Nossa Senhora da Rocha Chapel and the natural Arches of Marinha, two landmarks that define this coastline.

      Reach the Alfanzina Lighthouse at the western end of the route, a scenic landmark marking the boundary of this coastal journey.
