What people are saying about Lagoa

We had a great time on this kayaking tour and was a wonderful part of our trip. We did it in the middle of hiking the hanging seven valleys and definitely got wet but the sun was out and dried quickly on our hike afterwards! It is such a beautiful area and the caves were amazing. Zack and Jack were great tour guides and made us feel comfortable kayaking out on the ocean. Highly recommend.

Diogo and Sam were awesome guides and we really enjoyed our time out on the waves checking out the caves, or more accurately the algars! You do get wet but once out on the water it’s not too cold even in February and the sun was on our side! Thanks again :)

The tour guide Raf was very funvy and told interesting stories and the capitain of the boat knows his job very well, because the waves were very difficult to handle. We saw different caves beside the one of Benagil.

Very nice experience for exploring the Benagil cave. Our guide was very interesting, have a good sense of humour and took care of everyone well even though waves were a bit strong at some parts.

Bon séjour mais j'ai fait là queue,:ce n'était pas un billet coupe-fil

Zach and Jack are great, and the caves were beautiful!!
