Discover a little-known paradise in the Atlantic Ocean on this boat tour to the Berlengas Islands. Admire the breathtaking landscapes of Berlenga Grande and explore its rugged natural caves.
Berlengas Islands & Caves Boat Tour
At the scheduled time, we'll meet at Peniche Marina, where we'll start our boat tour to the Berlengas Islands.
We'll set sail for the 30-minute cruise to the archipelago aboard a catamaran, admiring the marine life that inhabits the waters off the coast of Portugal along the way. Did you know that the Berlengas Islands have been declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve? You'll be fascinated by the incredible underwater plants and wildlife!
Having reached Berlenga Grande, we'll swap to another smaller boat with a glass bottom that will take us to visit the natural sea caves that characterize the islands. We'll enjoy a 30 minute cruise to see the São João Batista Cave, the Blue Grotto, and the Furado Grande, an enormous natural tunnel stretching 70 metres under the entire island and opening up into a spectacular bay. During the remaining free time, you'll be able to explore the island via different trails.
After about five hours cruising around the Berlangas Islands, we'll arrive back at Peniche Marina where our boat tour will end.
