We were advised the day before that Benagil cave was closed, but they brought us to other caves that although you could not get off the kayak, we could kayak through some. The scenery for the entire kayak ride was spectacular, the guides were helpful and informative. We booked fir 8am, highly recommend early as the water is very calm and no boats and hardly any other kayaks so very peaceful. Highly recommend!

Beautiful kayak views and pleasant guides. I would recommend bringing quick dry long sleeve shirt if arriving for early morning tour in September as it is chilly. You may also want to bring water. The kayak style is sit on top with holes in the bottom so your bottom will definitely get wet. Communication could have been better from the company. First you will not be seeing the famous Benagil cave as pictured in the advertisement.the starting times on the digital ticket sent same day as a email were different. It would also have been good to have had he guide set expectations by letting the group know how long were were going to be paddling for. You will see some interesting and non crowded caves. The water is very clear and the views from ocean worthwhile! I would take this tour again.

Thoroughly enjoyed my first time Kayaking in the sea, totally different from the lakes in Fermanagh, our guide David was brilliant and very patient with a large group, I would definitely recommend this adventure to see the caves in all their glory, and to get that famous TikTok photo 😜
