Description
Enjoy a 2 in 1 boat tour departing from Portimão and lasting up to 2.5 hours. Explore the Algarve coastline and the mesmerizing rock formations, desert beaches and enter the famous Benagil cave. Feel the excitement as you cruise through open waters, searching for dolphins in their natural habitat! You'll have the opportunity to explore up to 5-6 caves (depending on tide levels) that dot the coastline, including the breathtaking Benagil Cave. The experienced and multilingual crew will ensure your safety and provide you with fascinating insights into the history, secrets and geology of the stunning rock formations along the way. As you venture out into the open sea, keep your eyes peeled for the dolphins as they may play and swim around the boat. Although this tour depends on Nature, it is a team effort with other companies equally accredited by the ICNF (Institute for the Conservation of Nature and Forests), thus maximizing the possibilities of sighting. The most sighted species are the 'Common Dolphin' (Delphinus delphis) and the 'Bottlenose Dolphin' (Tursiops truncatus). The live guide will interpret the species observed and their behavior and you can even open a species guide on your phone. For Bird enthusiasts, you can observe various species such as the “Northern Gannet” (Morus bassanus), “European Shag” (Phalacrocorax aristotelis) and the “Peregrine Falcon” (Falco peregrinus). Before returning to Portimão, you can jump off the boat and swim at a beautiful and tranquil bay, which is chosen on the day based on the sea and weather conditions. Get ready for an experience of a life time and unforgetable memories!Includes
