Amazing kayak trip - Had the most fantastic day on our kayak tour. From holding crabs, to roaming caves and secluded beaches, we did it all. Our guide was so friendly and welcoming from the moment we arrived, and great fun on the water. Cannot recommend enough!

Excellent Coastal Kayak Adventure! - My partner and I really lucked out with this one! The weather was cloudy and cool so some people cancelled and we had the guide, Ricardo, all to ourselves. Ricardo was funny and welcoming. A native to the algarve and trained micro biologist, he shared a lot of information about the science behind the cliffs, coast line, and local wild life. The sea was also quite calm so we were able to see some caves we otherwise wouldn’t have, the “secret” cave being the highlight of the trip. Ricardo also caught a hairy crab and goose necked crustacean for us to see and hold. Overall it was a great trip and wonderful alternative to the more popular coastal kayak tours. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a coastal kayak adventure!!!

Must do - Best trip with marine biologist who knows the sea and the caves very well. We had even the oppertunity to see dolphins. Really amazing!!! The tour is a must do if you are in that region and you consider to skip the Benagil choas.

Great tour with a great guide - As described in many other reviews, we can also confirm that it is a very interesting tour. Kayaking takes you along the rocky coast through various caves and bottlenecks. The Ricardo guide is simply a great person who knows a lot about the sea and its inhabitants and always leads the group in a funny and motivating way. We were even lucky enough to see a group of dolphins on the way. We can highly recommend the tour and would do it again in the future. If you don't just want to sit on the beach but also want to experience something interesting and Enterprise, this is the place for you.

Fabulous trip away from the crowds - We had a fabulous morning kayaking along the stunning coastline between Ferragudo and Carvoeiro. Our guide, Ricardo, was both entertaining and very knowledgeable about the local area and sea life, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The trip begins with a short boat ride, towing the kayaks behind, before you paddle your way back towards Ferragudo. Exploring the caves was absolutely incredible, and we managed to capture some fantastic family photos along the way. About halfway back, we stopped at a secluded beach (with only our group there!) where Ricardo showed us some fascinating marine life, including sea urchins and a sea cucumber. Overall, it was a wonderful adventure that perfectly mixed fun, exploration, and a touch of learning. We’d definitely recommend this trip — especially for families with older teenagers, like ours (family of 5)

Well worth it. You will not be disappointed - Ricardo was so lovely, funny and knowledgeable. Whilst we were all visiting the beach he went off and bought back a sea urchin and limpet. He told us all about to spot dolphins, what plants are used to catch what fish and the different life we would find under the water. It was a great 3 hours for us and 2 teenage girls
