Explore a hidden gem in the Atlantic Ocean with this boat excursion to the Berlengas Islands. Enjoy remarkable views of Berlenga Grande and venture into its intriguing natural caves.

Boat Excursion to the Berlengas Islands & Caves

We will convene at Peniche Marina at the predetermined time to embark on our boat excursion to the Berlengas Islands.

Our journey begins with a 30-minute sailing experience aboard a catamaran, offering the chance to appreciate the diverse marine life residing in the waters off Portugal's coast. The Berlengas Islands, designated as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, promise to astonish you with their remarkable aquatic flora and fauna!

Upon reaching Berlenga Grande, we will transfer to a smaller glass-bottomed boat to explore the unique natural sea caves of the islands. During this 30-minute cruise, we will visit notable sites including the São João Batista Cave, the Blue Grotto, and the impressive Furado Grande, a vast natural tunnel that extends 70 meters beneath the island, leading into a stunning bay. Afterward, you will have free time to wander the island's various trails.

After approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes of enjoying the Berlengas Islands, we will return to Peniche Marina to conclude our tour.
