Boat Trip to the Benagil Cave incl. Dolphin Watching"Lovely insights along the way, giving us information about the sights we were seeing and highlighting for us the most beautiful things to watch out for. It was made very clear that it was not guaranteed that we would see dolphins. However, we were so lucky and we did get to see them. Magic. A really lovely tour."Claire · June 2024From 35€

Michaël
"We had a great time with the crew, who were really friendly.
The captain, who spoke a little French, made the effort to give us directions for each cave we visited.
We were comfortable on the boat, and being at the back, we could move around to take photos.
Excellent value for money.
Plus, there's a very large free parking lot."
