    Great experience on a 4 hour private speed boat with Paolo and Marcelo. Would recommend to anyone considering. We saw caves, swam, and learned about the local beaches and history. We're so glad we went!

    The team was nice, the time on the boat (basically the waiting time) was nice. Unfortunately the team was very stressed all the time. They have a lot of customers though. The actual time in the air was 5 minutes. No dipping in water like they wrote on their homepage. I did it before in 2008, back then we were 15 minutes in the air and were dropped in the water now and then, which is fun.

    Amazing experience from both the benagil cave tour and the parasailing. Memorable experience and one of tremendous joy.

    Benagil Cave Tour! Had the best morning yesterday on the Benagil Cave Tour, some amazing sights of the caves and even got to see some dolphins on the way back! The crew on the boat were great, very informative as we travelled down the coast and got to each of the caves. Couldn’t recommend this tour and the Vilamoura Watersports Centre enough - thanks again!

    Booked on line after chatting with ladies at harbour. Great 2.5 hrs was had. Even managed a glimpse of a few dolphins. The coast line along this part of Portugal is stunning. The caves are spectical to see, some good boat skills to by our driver. Well worth the money. Can get a bit fresh out there so a light top/ hoody might be an advantage. Great trip great crew

    Had a fantastic time on a 2-hour speed boat hire. Some watersports then got lucky with the boat captain seeing that dolphins had been spotted and we got to see them on the way back in. Recommended and chat to them first about what you want to do, watersports, swimming caves etc.

    Disappointing trip to see 'dolphins and caves'. Not worth the money at all. Booked online. No dolphins seen at all - you can't depend on seeing wild dolphins for sure but nothing said about the lack of dolphins and no explanation. No communication had with other boats. Tour guide was disinterested in the tour and showed a few caves. This is essentially a trip on a rib but not worth the hard earned cash at all. Was looking forward to this but very disappointed.

    Be careful ! thieves! For personal reasons, we had to cancel our jet ski tour. Despite having respected the conditions of sale, we never received a refund of part of the amount paid, as stipulated in the contract.

    Paragliding: Fab! Well organised. The lads in charge are so friendly and really look after you. I felt quite safe and had an enjoyable experience, even though I felt sick after with sea sickness from the rocking boat. I was happy I did it. The view from above is stunning. Definitely worth it.

    Good afternoon. The excursion was very good. 🏞⛵️The entire crew was polite and talked to us through to each stop. Overall, it was a lovely experience 😊

    I’m not one for writing reviews but due to the excellent customer service I feel I have to leave one. Olivia the owner is rushed off her feet and still delivers the loveliest customer service. And where go pro didn’t record she offered us a discount to go on the stunt boat again which we jumped at the opportunity. And all her staff are excellent! She doesn’t just employ anyone clearly. Now for the stunt boat ride… Bernardo the driver WOW! His skills of cutting through the water for a smooth ride. A very skilled operative. Until he pulls a stunt absolutely made my day! Going again 100% great price service and adrenaline rush.

    This company is Real easy to deal with and in our view very cheap for the experience, great value for money with excellent communication and great boats. Went parasailing and it was very fun and enjoyable we also went on a dolphin and cave tour we saw a few dolphins that I never got a photo of and a turtle, the caves were gorgeous the only thing was it was a bit choppy so I would suggest going on a calm day

    Had an amazing day on Benagil cave boat. Crew were friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and fun. Lots to see. Good value. Even managed glimpse of dolphins! Bonus treat! Caves were breath taking. The boat crew took you in very close to see the best sights. Would highly recommend. All ages. Quite fast though if you have a dodgy tummy!

    Done a 3hr charter, ten of us on board, not including the skipper and deckhand, the lads let me use my own rigs and bait, great few hours. Skipper and deckhand were great looked after everyone, unhooking fish and untangling lines when needed. €40 a head, which I thought was well worth it. Would definitely recommend to kill a few hours and have fun. Thanks a million.😉

    We booked via their website a day in advance but for some technical reason, it was cancelled on the day. I was bit furious to be honest when I received the call as we were on holiday and everything was planned for every day. However, Millie called and was kind enough to fit us in very next day. The destiny had other plans in the mind, when we actually went on the boat, our parachute got stuck in the propeller, we were then rescued on another boat as our boat couldn't move. Special mention to Jacob and the driver for putting all the efforts to take the parachute out of the propeller. Millie offered us full refund for the trouble we went through but we were determined to take another chance. Finally we managed to get on the boat again and completed the parasailing and it worth every single penny. It was a great experience and would recommend anyone to the watersport centre. Thank you Millie, Jacob and the driver (sorry couldn't catch your name). Hope to see you again in near future.

    Fast boat with good seats, nice view of coastline and cave's. Its only 1,5h and maybe some colder when you are sitting in the front row far at sea. Conclusion is value for the money!

  • 5/5 Chaya H. 3 years ago on Google
    Had a fabulous time on jet skis yesterday. Very kind and helpful staff. Our guides Paul and Louis were very friendly. We would definitely recommend!

  • 5/5 Nigel M. 2 years ago on Google
    Went on the Benagil Cave tour with them and it was excellent. Knowledgeable staff and we even saw a pod of dolphins en route. Highly recommended!

    Great trip, didn't see any Dolphins but still enjoyed the boat ride, kids loved it! Thank you.

    Bengil caves in a speedboat. Saw dolphins on route. Short stop at dolphins, short stop at cave and speed home to vilamoura. Really enjoyed it, v comfortable. Could be slightly longer

  • 3/5 Vishal H. 2 years ago on Google
    Enjoyed the boat ride into the Atlantic ocean looking for Dolphins. I think they give you the spiel of having more than 95% chance of spotting Dolphins as they are in communication with other boats who may spot the dolphins. Did not see any evidence of this communication or network of boats in the area. They simply take you for a ‘ride’ and bring you back and apologise for the failure to spot any Dolphins on this occasion. The only saving grace is the trip to the caves and beaches in a fast boat before the sham trip to spot Dolphins.

    First class day out reef fishing. Great boat with space to chill, although not needed as too busy pulling fish out. Caught an excellent Red Snapper as well as 7 other types of fish. We were first timers family of 5 and will definitely be going again. While experience was made even better by the staff's excellent service. Big thumbs up from us.
