Caves, Cliffs & Coastal Vibes: Benagil by Catamaran
Embark on a 4-hour catamaran cruise from Portimão Marina and discover the spectacular coastline between Carvoeiro and Benagil. This scenic route showcases some of the Algarve’s most iconic landmarks - from golden beaches to world-famous sea caves - all viewed from the comfort of a modern sailing catamaran.
Cruise past stunning spots such as Praia dos Caneiros, Carvoeiro, Algar Seco, Vale de Centeanes, Benagil and Praia da Marinha. The highlight of the trip is the chance to admire the Benagil Cave, with its dramatic natural dome and sunlight streaming through the roof.
The boat anchors in a sheltered bay near Benagil Beach, where you’ll be served a complimentary lunch onboard. There’s time to swim, unwind in the sun and enjoy water activities such as Stand-Up Paddleboarding and a floating inflatable water park - all included.
On the return journey, if the wind conditions allow, the sails may be hoisted for a peaceful sailing experience. Keep an eye out for dolphins and enjoy relaxing on the twin sunbathing nets as you cruise back to Portimão. A perfect mix of nature, relaxation and light adventure.
