Berlengas Islands & Caves Excursion

We will convene at Peniche Marina at the designated time to commence our excursion to the Berlengas Islands.

The journey includes a 30-minute voyage to the archipelago on a catamaran, where you can observe the fascinating marine life in the waters off Portugal’s coast. The Berlengas Islands are recognized as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, making it a remarkable site for experiencing diverse underwater flora and fauna!

Upon arrival at Berlenga Grande, we will transfer to a smaller vessel equipped with a glass bottom which will take us to explore the natural sea caves of the islands. Enjoy a 30-minute ride that highlights the São João Batista Cave, the vibrant Blue Grotto, and the impressive Furado Grande, a vast natural tunnel that stretches 70 meters beneath the island, revealing a breathtaking bay. You will have additional time to roam the island along various hiking paths.

After approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes of navigating the Berlengas Islands, we will return to Peniche Marina to wrap up our adventure.
