The first part of the tour takes us from Albufeira to Carvoeiro along the coastline. On the way, you can enjoy the view of the Atlantic Ocean and the coast with its rock formations and caves.

I highly recommend this boat tour — it was one of the best experiences we had in Albufeira!
Captain Pedro was excellent. He drove the boat very smoothly and safely. He made sure we all felt comfortable and enjoyed the ride.
Luona, one of the helpers on board, was so friendly. She explained everything clearly in simple words — about the caves, the dolphins, and the coastline. It was fun and easy to understand.
Bruno, another guide on the boat, also gave us a lot of information during the tour. He kept the group entertained and made sure we didn't miss anything important.
We saw beautiful sea caves, including the famous Benagil Cave, and we were lucky to spot a group of dolphins swimming nearby — such a magical moment!
The boat was clean and comfortable, and the whole team was very professional and kind.
If you're visiting Albufeira, don’t miss this tour. It’s perfect for families, couples, or anyone who loves nature and the sea!

A great boat trip accompanied by a very friendly crew. The sun, wind, and waves were an experience in themselves, but the caves were sensational! A warm, waterproof jacket with a hood is recommended. It was a lot of fun, even without the dolphins, which weren't spotted today due to the waves.
