Snacks and alcohol are not included. 4.98 from 1522 reviews at €25 per person.

- **Express Tour - Benagil Cave** — The short version of the Benagil run: half an hour by small boat from Benagil beach itself, into the cave and past six to eight more caves and beaches with Praia da Marinha.

Not for pregnant travellers or anyone with back problems. 4.81 from 526 reviews at €35 per person.
- **Benagil Caves Tour from Portimao - Small Groups** — A small boat with an electric motor instead of a diesel engine, so the group hears the guide and the cave rather than the engine, on the longer run from Portimão past the navy beach with a swim stop.
