Algar de Benagil

As you explore the Benagil Cave. While venturing inside is no longer possible (you can opt for a boat ride at extra cost under good sea conditions), be led to a jaw-dropping viewpoint from which you can gaze in awe at the colossal sea cavern which is known for the opening in its top where light streams thorugh. Land View of Benagil Cave: Take a short walk from the parking area to a cliff-top viewpoint overlooking the cave’s iconic skylight. Sea View of Benagil Cave: Choose the optional boat tour (extra cost) for an up-close view of Benagil Cave’s stunning interior from the sea. Note: Kayaking is discouraged due to safety concerns, as heavy boat traffic creates waves and challenging conditions—even for experienced kayakers. We recommend the boat tour to Benagil Cave. Tours range from 30 to 120 minutes. Prices - depending on the duration & route you choose. Your guide will assist with arrangements.
