The Best Kayaking Experience in Portugal - It was a wonderful experience with Algarviews. My coach, Jack, was really friendly, patient, and a skilled kayaking instructor. His colleagues were also lovely, providing great customer service, as well as a waterproof bag, still water, and a banana – so thoughtful! I felt safe and really enjoyed the session. I’d love to come back next time!

A must-do in the region! - Superb moment with Diogo. Departure at 7 a.m. so we could be alone to see the landscape, the caves and the beaches. Diogo explained the history of the lieyxes and the flora and fauna, which was really interesting. A pleasure to do eco-tourism in this way. I highly recommend it.

Sea trip with Ivo, May 2025 - Excellent outing at sea with Ivo, a professional guide who knew how to enhance the visit by sharing his knowledge. We enjoyed the personalization of the adventure. Definitely one of the best experiments of its kind we have done. Excellent value for money.

Ivo was a great guide!... - Ivo was a great guide! All of the workers were friendly and helpful. We had 3-4 foot waves. It was a workout but worth it for the views! The caves were amazing! Great day!

Amazing kayaking trip! - We went kayaking with Diogo and it was the most amazing, relaxing experience! We visited many algars, caves and learned a lot about local fauna and flora. We got plenty of time on the water and enjoyed Diogo's pleasant conversation and insightful comments. We would definately recommend this to anyone who enjoys nature and being out on the water!

Wonderful Kayak Tour! - This kayak tour was one of the most beautiful experiences I've had so far! The guides put in a lot of effort, were funny, paid attention to everyone and were just super cool:) there was a bottle of water and a banana for everyone and even a waterproof mobile phone :) we started on a smaller beach and then drove into a few caves and were allowed to get off in some as well. The guides tell a lot about the history and nature and are well prepared and know a lot as locals. How many caves you manage to get into depends a bit on the fitness of the participants, as it can be exhausting to paddle. The number of participants was totally pleasant with 10 people and the togetherness was quickly super warm because the guides also tried to bring everyone directly into conversation. The guides also take many photos of you as soon as you wish. I can only recommend this trip and would do it again anytime!

Best kayak tour, much better than boat tours! - Jack and Diogo were amazing guides to help us enjoy this experience to the maximum! Diogo knew all the secret caves and passages on the way to the Benagil cave. They even gave us a snack and some bottles of water for the trip. They are also very passionate about the conservation of these beautiful caves.

Highly recommended - an eventful kayak trip with the friendly guide Jack - Our tour started at 5pm with three kayaks. The group size is basically deliberately kept small. For personal items such as mobile phones or things we have got matching waterproof bags. To fortify, there was a water bottle and banana, and to finish, melon. Jack first got an idea of the skills of the participants. We had good waves, so the entrances to the small hidden caves required some navigation skills. Jack told interesting facts about it and proved to be a brilliant photographer, climber and navigator. On the way back, the sun bathed the entire coast in dreamlike honey-golden yellow evening light. It was a brilliant experience that we recommend 100%! Algarviews is a great operator, stands out from the other commercial operators in terms of individuality and has super likeable licensed guides. A great team. We wish you all the best and keep it up! Greetings from Munich
