Benagil How to get there?

Hugo2023-12-20T12:03:25+00:00

WHEN YOU THINK OF ALGAR DE BENAGIL AS A CAVE NEXT TO THE BEACH OF BENAGIL, WE MAKE IT CLEAR THAT WE ADVISE AGAINST GOING SWIMMING TO THE CAVE. FROM OUR EXPERIENCE ON THE GROUND, WE HAVE OBSERVED SEVERAL SITUATIONS IN WHICH PEOPLE HAVE PUT THEMSELVES AT RISK, DUE TO INEXPERIENCE, LACK OF SAFETY CONDITIONS ON THE PART OF THE SEA OR BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT PHYSICAL CAPACITIES TO SWIM TO THE CAVE, BE CAREFUL, DO NOT RISK IT, SO, BENAGIL HOW TO GET THERE!

 

 

BENAGIL HOW TO GET THERE!

I, advises you to plan your vacation and obviously include Benagil in your itinerary. If you want to be inside the cave safely, we recommend the boat trip.

 

  • A smaller boat

allows you to explore the interior of the cave, as well as the interior of many more caves in the surrounding area, you can then find among them, the love cave, the smuggling caves and the lighthouse cave, all of them the result of years of erosion in the rocks, and all so unique and incomparable. It is also important to note that in smaller groups, it will become a more intimate and personal tour.

 

  • Tour recommended for Families, Couples, Explorers.


Benagil Seen from the Top We found some pictures taken from the top of Benagil. Benagil, is part of one of the most famous walking routes in the area “The 7 suspended valleys” with a trail of 5.4 km, and which includes this view from the top of Benagil, it is possible to see the wooden fences that signal the hole that it seems a little lost among the rocks.

 

FOR SECURITY REASONS AND TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE INSTABILITY OF THE CLIFFS, IT IS PROPERLY SIGNPOSTED AND PROTECTED.

 

Since we are at the top of these yellow cliffs, it is impossible not to marvel at the splendor of nature in this place.

 

Each rock looks delicately sculpted, and with the oscillations of sunlight it is possible to appreciate different shades.

 

Benagil is therefore one of the sea caves that you can find on a pedestrian walk that starts at Praia da Marinha. On this tour, you will travel through enchanted valleys, with paradisiacal views, in the company of an experienced guide who will provide you with pleasant moments.

 

4 WAYS TO VISIT BENAGIL

1 boat | 2 Kayak | 3 Paddle | 4 Swimming

 

BOAT

Boat trips to Benagil are very popular, trips can be booked online, avoiding queues or worse, staying at your place to visit the Benagil cave, which is probably the ex-libris of the Algarve Region. There are many options, between companies, local boarding boats and departure times, the offer is vast.
Important factors to take into consideration when choosing your boat trip to the Benagil cave. Bear in mind that Benagil, is the most famous cave, but, in addition to Benagil, there are many more caves, rock formations, you will desert a fantastic coast of yellow rock that will surely leave you amazed, with so much natural beauty.
If you choose to take a tour from Portimão, this is all you can contemplate, crossing the arade river, with the fort of Santa Catarina, and the São João do Arade Castle, get out in the atlantic ocean, passing by Pintadinho beach,Paraiso, Carvoeiro, Ceteanes , Benagil and Praia da Marinha, where you stop to swim.
The smaller boat option allows, in addition to visiting the smaller caves, transmits much more proximity to your guide, who will explain the entire route, with care to the customer, only possible in small groups.
Another question that often arises is the duration of the tour, between 1: 30h and 2: 30h what is the difference?
More time does not mean seeing more, quite the contrary, on this tour, you will go to Praia da Marinha, which more than is offered on other boats, the “more time” is due solely to the motorization capacity of the boats, this tour , uses new and safe boats, with new yamaha engines, with special care to the customer and very important TO THE ENVIRONMENT.
Today I leave this tour as a recommendation, you can always contact me through whatsaap.

 

Are you prepared for so much Natural Beauty?

KAYAK

They are an excellent option for photography “on the sand” of the small cave in Benagil.
There are on Benagil beach, but there are also organized tours with a guide. It all depends on what you prefer, a rental where you can explore alone, or go out in a group with a guide. Taking into account the proximity of Benagil, with other caves in the surrounding area, it is possible to visit more kayak caves. Kayak was a very popular option in 2020, in this search for the Benagil cave. Feel free to talk to me on whatsapp if you have any questions.

For those who want to kayak, but, for example, the boyfriend does not want to! There is a boat and kayak option! Where you will be able to visit some caves by boat and close to Benagil you will pass to the kayak, where you will be able to “tread” the golden sands of the famous Benagil cave.

PADDLE

For the more adventurous, you are a good solution, where you can be in contact with nature in perfect harmony. There is the possibility to rent by the hour or on a guided group tour.
As in kayak there is the possibility of a boat and paddle, shared from different places, where are you staying? Ask me what options are for you. In this modality do not forget that Benagil is very popular, and there are many boats on site, so you will find some “turbulence” in the area.

SWIMMING

It is not recommended, because it gives the false feeling, that the cave is right next to the beach of Benagil, but, it is not quite like that. If you don’t have the conditions or the physical aptitude to do it, don’t do it! If you forget the “transit” to the cave, and the conditions of the sea and the state of the tide.
