🗺️ What to Expect
Your experience starts at the entrance of Benagil Beach, where you will meet the team and pick up your double kayak. Before you head out, local guides and kayak instructors provide a clear safety briefing, plus practical tips to help you paddle confidently along the coast.
When it is time to launch, the instructors assist by placing the kayaks in the water for you.
