What you can expect

Climb aboard a semi-rigid boat at Albufeira Marina and cruise 18 km along the Algarve coastline. With a skipper and onboard marine biologist, explore sea caves, including the iconic Benagil Cave (subject to access), and admire the Alfanzina Lighthouse.

Marvel at beaches, unique rock formations, and, if sea conditions allow, enjoy a refreshing swim. Try to spot wild dolphins in their natural environment while learning about local marine life through the insights of an experienced guide.

Please note: Dolphin sightings are not guaranteed, as they are completely wild animals and move freely in their natural habitat. Access to Benagil Cave is also subject to change without notice due to decisions by Portuguese Maritime authorities. Seacret-Tours is not responsible for restrictions imposed.
Due to prevailing winds along the Algarve coast, especially in the afternoons, the sea can become a bit choppier at the surface, with short waves and frequent splashes — especially on fast boats. We recommend wearing appropriate or waterproof clothing, particularly in the more exposed areas, for a more comfortable experience.
