We booked our Kayak Tour off Viator, and they booked with Dolphins Driven. There were 3 adults and…read more2 children in our party, and overall there were only 12 adults total in the group for the tour. Options were available for single or double kayaks which was nice for the kids to be paired with each adult, and that I didn't have to pair with a random stranger. The guide spoke english, and was able to answer any questions we had. They took us out to sea via boat and then we got into the kayaks. The water was calm, and even though I was a bit tired - we got to go for 1.5 hours and it was not too challenging. I gave it a 4 out of 5 for 2 reasons: The first was that there really wasn't any instructions, safety briefing or what to expect before getting into the kayaks. It was as simple as hold your paddles here and have the paddles facing this way for forward. It may be an american thing to expect a bit more, but for never kayaking before it made me a bit nervous to not have instruction. The second was that we didn't see the Benagil Caves. We had booked via viator for a Benagil Cave Tour, and the Dolphins Driven promotional photos included photos of the Benagil cave - so it felt a bit misleading.

Our tour guide, Jorge, was the absolute best -- knowledgeable about the coastline and the various caves, knowledgeable about the town (ask him his favorite restaurant!), and very chill. It was about a two hour trip from start to finish, which was the perfect amount of time. Jorge said we kayaked around 3 miles, but it's not continuous (you stop in caves and along the beach). Would go again and again!

The tour guides Axel and Daniel were AWESOME. These men are guardians of the ocean and knew intuitively where the dolphins would surface. They have respect for the sea creatures, the ocean and for their guests. They maneuvered their sea craft safely by the cliffs and in the caves. I felt exhilaration and the guides were just as excited when the dolphins emerged. These men are the BEST that the Algarve experience has to offer. I was Blessed!!! I would HIGHLY recommend Seacret-tours.com in the Algarve if you want to feel the joy of the Southern Coast along Algarve, Portugal! Bravo and Obrigada to Axel and Daniel!

The staff was super nice and talkative. They seemed very genuine. Waves and winds were high that morning and we didn't end up going to any of the grottos despite that being the primary objective of the tour. The tour guide did try to keep us entertained and brought us to one of the beaches with snorkeling equipment, but I think most people were more interested in getting back at that point. We were promised a 2.5 hour tour and it was only 90 minutes at most. Can't really blame them for the weather conditions, but it would've been nice if they had offered an incentive for cutting the tour short and not being able to actually go into any of the grottos.

From the moment we made our booking, my husband and I knew this was going to be an experience we…read morewould never forget. At 9am, we met Mika at Dona Ana Beach, where we would be SUPing along the incredible golden cliffs and little dotted islands, weaving in and out of magical caves for 3 hours. The boards were great quality + they provided wet suits + Mika helped give us a debriefing on SUP skills - I finally felt like I knew what I was doing this time! He also used his waterproof camera to take photos of us, allowing us to be fully immersed in the experience. After we made it back to shore, we took a break, allowing Mika to take the other SUPers back to their hotel, and allowing us to enjoy our picnic lunch on the seriously beautiful Dona Ana Beach. At 3pm, we met Mika at the next location where we would be Coasteering..!! My husband was way excited, while I was pretty much way nervous, but Mika really did a wonderful job making sure I felt comfortable and supported the entire time. I can honestly say that I had absolute BLAST and am so grateful to have experienced such a beautiful part of our world in this sort of an adventurously-intimate way. My husband did a few of the higher jumps towards the end, while I happily cheered him on. The highlight of the day was the mesmerizing GREEN CAVE! At the end of the day, because we were in our camper van, we loved the location he had taken us so much, that we actually ended up staying for 5 days! We would have never found this beautiful little cove without them. If you're looking to discover the magic of the Algarve with people who feel like they could be your best friends, look no further than Coastline Algarve! Truly. Thank you for such an incredible time!!

I literally forgot where I'm and why, it was just the sun, the ocean and our small group enjoying the tour. Nelson did a great job to prepare us for the SUP tour, he individually coached everybody how to cope with the sea conditions. We were smoothly introduced to new SUP techniques while slowly touring grottos where sun light is magically reflected in the transparent water. Besides the equipment the SUP school provides wetsuits, which was perfect considering the relatively cool water of the ocean. Amazing experience and thanks for the beers! We would definitely love to try the coasteering tour next time we are in Sagres.

The day sailing trip lasted from 10am-5pm and included a 3 course meal which was delicious plus wine and water. We saw the beautiful coastline of Algarve and had the chance to see dolphins. We made a stop in front of Lagos and swam around. It was a great day which is why we decided on the motor boat trip the following day. The motor boat is the way to see all the caves and private small beaches along the way. We entered the caves and got so many pictures. We made a stop in the city of Alvor to have lunch at Ze Morgadinho which was so good!! I recommend the clams and a fresh fish. The service of Portiate was one of the best we have had and I would highly recommend them! I can't wait to go back one day with more friends and would like to charter a boat for a week. Everyone in their shop and the crew were friendly and helpful. Hope to be back soon!
