Overview

Guidekin summary

A big power boat that goes inside several caves along the Galé, Senhora da Rocha and Marinha stretch before Benagil, then heads offshore to look for dolphins. It carries a large group, so this is a cruise rather than a small boat, and there is a booking minimum. 4.68 from 249 reviews at €35 per person.

From the guide

MATRIX Power boat is 16 meters long (53ft) and has a maximum capacity of 50 people. You will have the opportunity to see the coast and visit the famous caves starting from the Marina of Albufeira and passing in front of the areas of Galé, Senhora da Rocha, Marinha until Benagil. We will go inside the most famous caves along the coastline and will give you important and detailed information about different spoits along the trip. Then we will cruise away from the coast and look for dolphins in the wild. If the weather allows, we will make a quick stop so you can have a refreshing swim in the ocean.
With a friendly and well-instructed crew that will help and guide you along the cruise to make sure you have the best experience of your vacations!
Our trip ends back at Albufeira Marina.
For safety reasons, children under 3 years old are not allowed on this trip.
