Overview

Our tour combines the comfort of a catamaran with the adventure of kayaking along Albufeira’s coastline. Limited to just 17 people, it’s a small-group, personalized experience. With 2 professional guides for constant support and no need to paddle back, it’s a relaxed and safe activity for all levels. We explore hidden gems like Praia do Ninho das Andorinhas — a secret beach few get to visit.

What To Expect

Enjoy a unique and relaxing kayak tour along the beautiful Albufeira coast, perfect for those wanting to try sea kayaking away from the crowds of Benagil. Depart comfortably aboard our catamaran directly from Albufeira Marina. After a short cruise to Praia do Castelo, the kayaks are launched with full support from our team. Over approximately 2.5 hours, explore small sea caves, cliffs shaped by the ocean, and discover the famous hidden Praia do Ninho das Andorinhas — a little paradise ideal for a refreshing swim. Accompanied by 2 experienced guides (one always kayaking and another providing support from a boat), you’ll have constant assistance, explanations about the coastline, and full safety guaranteed. Unlike kayak rentals from the beach, you won’t have to paddle back — the catamaran will be waiting for you to return peacefully to the Marina. Important to know: - This tour does not include a visit to Benagil Cave. Ideal for beginners or anyone looking for a relaxed and safe experience. - Please bring swimwear, a towel, and sunscreen. Includes: - Catamaran ride to the kayaking area - Kayaks and life jackets - 2 experienced guides(1 kayaking + 1 support boat)-Stops for swimming.
