PORTUGAL
Every trip has one spare morning too few. These 4 sea cave snorkeling tours in Portugal earn the slot, priced and timed so you can decide quickly and get back to packing.
Cruise from Sesimbra through Arrábida’s clear waters, caves, and remote beaches, with swimming, snorkeling, history, and a regional drink.
“Our guide Chantel was very informative, we learned a lot about Sesimbra and the history of the area. She and the skipper were very relaxed, we had plenty of time for a swim. Really enjoyable trip!”
Hike the Seven Hanging Valleys, see Benagil Cave from above, snorkel at Marinha Beach, and visit Senhora da Rocha from Faro.
“The views are spectacular, the hike is pleasant with proper shoes, well worth it. We did not get the opportunity to use the snorkeling masks as the ocean was too rough but the equipment looked good.”
Explore Arrábida’s secret beaches, caves, cliffs, and snorkeling stop on a three-hour boat trip from Sesimbra to Cabo Espichel.
“The tour captain and tour guide were excellent. I gave them a 5 star as I don't want to ruin their status, but the boat is not the one pictured. You have to straddle a large bumper for the entire ride and may not be comfortable for some. When booking the trip, the maximum was 8, but as they changed the boat, the tour was then made for 12 people. We were not looking for that kind of a tour, but again the staff was very professional, and the captain navigated the waters well. The scenary, beaches stops and caves were wonderful. The water was too cold to swim.”
Explore Alvor’s secret caves, hidden beaches, and calm snorkeling bays with marine biologists in a relaxed small-group tour.
“Great guides and experience for family with kids ( that can swim). Secret beach is beautiful and. Closing with some small bites at the beautiful beach.”
An animal, a kind of water, a kind of boat, or a kind of day.
