Overview

Discover the best of the Algarve coast in one day from Faro, in a small group of up to 8 travellers. More than 12,000 travellers have spent this day with us since 2019. Walk the golden cliffs of Praia da Marinha to the famous heart-shaped rock and look straight down into Benagil Cave from the cliffs above. Then enjoy 2 hours of free time in the charming village of Carvoeiro for lunch, a walk by the sea or the beach. We finish at Algar Seco, among rock formations and natural pools, with an optional cliff jump in the warmer months. Our guides have lived in the Algarve for many years. They drive, tell the stories of this coast and take photos of you all day. ⚠️ This is a land tour, not a boat tour. We see Benagil Cave from the cliffs above. With only 8 spots per tour, it's worth booking ahead. Free cancellation up to 24 hours before. We can't wait to show you our coast!

Itinerary

  1. 1

    Praia da Marinha

    1 hour

    We start with a guided walk along the golden cliffs above Praia da Marinha, one of the most famous beaches in Europe. Your guide takes you to the best viewpoints, including the famous heart-shaped rock, and takes photos of you along the way.

  2. 2

    Algar de Benagil

    2 hours

    After a short 10-minute drive, we walk to the cliffs above Benagil Cave. From here, you look straight down through the round opening in the roof of the cave to the sea below. This is the view that everyone wants to see. This is a land tour, so we don't go inside the cave.

  3. 3

    Carvoeiro

    2 hours

    A 15-minute drive takes us to the charming village of Carvoeiro. You have 2 hours of free time for lunch, a walk by the sea or time on the beach. There are plenty of cafés and restaurants, or you can bring a picnic. Your guide will happily share their favourite places.

  4. 4

    Calcadao de Carvoeiro

    15 min

    After lunch, we walk together along the Carvoeiro boardwalk. It follows the top of the cliffs, with wide views over the village and the sea.

  5. 5

    Algar Seco

    45 min

    The boardwalk takes us to Algar Seco, a place full of rock formations, natural pools and small caves shaped by the sea. In the warmer months, when the sea is safe, you can try an optional cliff jump. Your guide checks the conditions first and helps you jump safely.
