ALGAR DE BENAGIL

Why Is Benagil Cave So Famous?

Benagil is famous for its extraordinary sea caves, golden limestone cliffs and beautiful Atlantic coastline.

The best-known formation is Algar de Benagil, a spectacular natural sea cave with a large opening in its roof that allows sunlight to illuminate the interior.

The surrounding coastline is equally impressive. On your journey you can see hidden beaches, caves, arches and towering cliffs formed naturally over thousands of years by the Atlantic Ocean.

A boat tour from Vilamoura gives you the opportunity to experience much more than one cave. The journey itself is part of the adventure, with beautiful scenery stretching along the Algarve coast.
