Benagil Cave Sunset Cruise

About this experience

At the chosen time we'll meet at the San Francisco de Portimão dock and board a boat to sail off on our sunset tour.

We'll spend one hour and half sailing the Atlantic Ocean as we head towards the famous Benagil Cave, one of the most fascinating places in this part of southern Portugal. Get your cameras ready!
