Kayak & SUP Benagil offers unforgettable, eco-friendly guided Stand-Up Paddle (SUP) and Kayaking tours to Benagil cave and Marinha arches, starting from a secluded and uncrowded cove. Whether you want to paddle serenely or navigate in a stable kayak, this is your ticket to discovering hidden beaches, natural arches, the famous Benagil cave and other secret spots that other tours don’t reach.

Secret Beach Departure Point – avoid the crowds
Unlike other tours in the area, Kayak & SUP Benagil tours set off from a beautiful secret beach just east of Benagil cave, avoiding the crowds at Benagil beach itself.

There is a private meeting point for all their tours with parking, storage, shower and WC facilities, to ensure all their guests have the most comfortable experience possible.

The tours are strictly limited in size so that every participant gets personalized assistance from the guide and to ensure an intimate and low-impact environment that protects the beautiful local marine ecosystem.
 
Highlights
  • Local expertise - the Kayak & SUP Benagil team, lead by local Márcio, incudes certified fitness professionals, former lifeguards, and ocean lovers with roots in the local community. Their deep connection to the sea guarantees an authentic, storytelling-rich experience.
  • Safety first – the uncrowded departure point allows for a comprehensive safety briefing so that everyone, with or without experience, enters the water with confidence.
  • Early morning tours - experience the caves and coast before the boats arrive with a tour starting at 8am or 9am. The sea is calm, the water is clear, the views and experience are so much better!
