The highlight of our Portugal trip so far is a 90-minute boat tour along the Algarve coast from Praia de Carvoeiro (Carvoeiro Beach) to Praia da Marinha. During the trip, we saw (and often entered) 15-20 caves, plus spectacular cliffs, arches, and beaches. The tour included the famous, often-photographed Benagil Cave.
It was incredibly beautiful. The pictures don’t do it justice. We hope the photos and videos below give you some idea of the awesomeness of these stunning caves and rock formations.
Two days later, we walked the full length of the Algar Seco Boardwalk, which allowed us to view some of these cliff formations from above. Those photos follow the boat tour photos.

The following pictures were taken from the Algar Seco Boardwalk and some paths that led down into the rock formations.
If you ever visit the southern coast of Portugal, don’t miss this tour. The tour company we used was CarvoeiroCaves.com, and we were very satisfied.
