Discover the Algarve on a private full-day tour from Lisbon. Visit the best places in the Algarve, Lagos, Sagres, and Albufeira. Climb aboard a boat for a cruise to see the Benagil Caves with an experienced guide.

Get picked up from your hotel or address of choice in Lisbon and set off on a sightseeing tour focused on culture and history. The Algarve Caves have become an attraction for many travelers visiting the southernmost region of mainland Portugal.

These are formations that are millions of years old, living traces of the geology of the area in constant change. Tirelessly sculpted by the sea and wind, they gave rise to limestone rock forms that appeal and fascinate the human eye. They represent part of the Algarve's natural heritage.

There are many caves in the Algarve. Some are submerged, others can only be visited in good weather conditions; Some are very small, others are large enough for small inland beaches to exist, and water to enter from two different places. Some have sinkholes, which are open areas at the top of the rock where sunlight and other elements enter. Others are quite dark.

There are many reasons to include a visit to some of these caves in your trip or vacation. Although most are only accessible by boat, you can include your family, groups of friends, or couples. As they are not very accessible, they tend to be places far from the best-known tourist attractions and with more people. It's a great way to enjoy the Algarve coastline, which combines crystal clear, warm waters with magnificent rock formations. They are great for taking photos, and there aren't many of them, so it's a field to explore for your lens. Finally, the boat captains, in addition to being excellent sailors and knowing the location of the caves, are excellent guides, and tell fascinating and curious stories about each place in the Algarve.
