View & bookChoosing a boat trip
The Algarve coast is at its best from the sea: golden cliffs, hidden beaches and sea caves that you cannot reach on foot. Catamarans are the most relaxed option with shade and space, small boats can enter the grottos, and jet boats are for thrill seekers.
In the west, Lagos is the base for Ponta da Piedade. In the centre, Albufeira and Vilamoura are closest to Benagil and the dolphin grounds.
