2.Private Morning Yacht Cruise from Albufeira Marina

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 15 reviews · 3 hours (approx.)

Set out from Albufeira Marina at 10 a.m. on a private three-hour yacht cruise for up to 12 people. Expect Benagil Cave, coastal rock formations, swimming, snorkeling gear, prosecco, wine, cheese, charcuterie, fruit, and free time afterward.

“This was a very nice boat and definitely a luxury experience. We had a hospitable crew and captain and really enjoyed seeing the gorgeous caves and coastline of the Algarve region. My only complaint is that an address that was online as a meet-up location (there must have been different ones listed) was incorrect and caused us to roam around in error for 45 mins looking for the proper location. Good thing we left early for this excursion of it would have eaten into our very expensive charter. All in all, a lovely morning on the water without the tourist crowds and that is what you are paying for.”
