Questions
Do I need previous experience?
No. Safety is the priority, so there is a full instruction on the beach before we start. On the SUP tour you get a 10 to 15-minute lesson before paddling.
What is the minimum age?
For the kayak tour, 4 years old, but only in good sea conditions: contact us first and we will suggest the best day and time. For the SUP tour, from age 8.
Do we go inside the Algar de Benagil?
Yes, we stop for a few minutes inside the Algar de Benagil. Landing on its beach is no longer allowed, as it is now a protected area.
Can I join if I can't swim?
Yes, we often have non-swimmers. Everyone wears a life jacket; just let us know so we can take extra care.
What if the weather stops the tour?
All tours depend on the weather. If yours can't run, we will try to reschedule you, or give you a 100% refund if you can't make another time.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes, pets are welcome. Tell us when you book so everything is ready.
