The Carvoeiro caves are part of the most extraordinary places on the planet. According to “Another magazine” from the United Kingdom, Algar de Benagil is considered the most beautiful natural cathedral in the world. Sculpted by the waves coming from the vast Atlantic Ocean, these caves were formed about 20 million years ago
.On our boat trips along the Algarve coast you will find spectacular views to photograph, you will experience the interior of fascinating cavities built inside the imposing cliffs with idyllic secret beaches, where the rock formations, the play of colors with the sunlight passing through the openings, as well as the contact with the ocean will unite you forever in a set of unique and indescribable sensations, only possible when you feel the magical effects of proximity to nature.
From Carvoeiro Beach, where the tours begin, we sail along the coast, passing through enchanting places such as “The Doll” or “Algar Seco”, as well as wonderful white sand beaches such as Vale Covo, Carvalho and Benagil.
We also see the beautiful “Alfanzina Lighthouse”. However, the ex-libris of this trip allows us to reach the steam boiler cave, where the remains of a sunken steamboat, which gives it its name, are found. Then we pass by the famous arches and numerous rock formations of Praia da Marinha that are viewed from the sea. This beach is still considered one of the 10 most beautiful beaches in Europe and among the 100 best beaches in the world.
