Our afternoon sailing trip around the caves of Algarve and to Benagil was amazing. Captain Bernada was really good and gave us great information as we sailed along the coastline. It was rather cool and the crew offered us coats to stay warm which was really nice.I wonder if it was due to the fact we were in October but we weren't offered the opportunity to swim in the ocean as promised in the product description.One thing I'd like to point out is that in the description we are told there is a gift shop and a snack bar onboard, do not expect it to be a proper gift shop or even a cute little pirate like bar. The gift shop simply sells a couple t-shirts and a bandana with the santa Bernada written on it, and the bar has a couple of cans of soda and beer with a pack of crisps or two.I was hoping for keyrings or such and a little more elaborate bar/snack.I highly recommend this tour, it is an amazing experience and better than taking a normal boat. Worth every penny !!
Nice experience. Ship turns heads everywhere it appears.

Very friendly staff and crew. They are a little unorganized at the pier but don't let that sway your decision. It would help if they had better signage and a booth at the pier/dock. The boat arrived to the pier 15 minutes late so it took awhile before the other passengers disembarked and we were allowed on the boat. All of the boat's sails were not open so don't expect the boat to look exactly like it does in the photos. I'm sure winds dictate how many sails they can have safely rigged. The boat was clean and safe. Nice snacks and drinks on board to purchase. Make sure to bring a camera and a light jacket and towel (for spray etc.) as the winds can be chilly depending on the month you go. Some levels of the boat require a wee bit of climbing a ladder and steady balance so some of these areas may not be accessible for everyone in your party.

Bateau unique en son genre.
Très gentil accueil de ma chienne montée à bord avec nous.
L’avantage d’un grand bateau est de pouvoir se balader.
Dans la mesure où seules 2 chaloupes assuraient la visite des grottes pour l’ensemble du bateau il a fallu 3 voyages et l’ensemble était donc un peu long …
Le bateau navigue au moteur et non à la voile et la zone était prise d’assaut par les touristes en kayaks, zodiacs, bateaux en tout genre à moteur rapides ou moins rapides, promenant un grand nombre ou un petit nombre de personnes…. Si cela ne vous rebute pas alors allez-y … une fois.
Aceptable para ver vistas desde el mar

En principio no salieron a su hora, decían 30' antes del embarque, asi q mucho prisa x comer antes de embarcar y al final xa nada xq se retrasó. El paseo en barco fabuloso aunq si te mareas con frecuencia toma la pastilla q te ofrecen ellos...mucha gente lo pasó muy mal

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
