    What To Expect

    Praia do Carvoeiro

    Next to a cliff, where the small white fishermen's houses are harmoniously distributed, Praia do Carvoeiro is a beautiful and picturesque image of the Algarve coast. On its small beach, sheltered and much sought after by bathers, our boats rest for trips along the coast, showing the beautiful caves and sinkholes in the vicinity. This is where our boat trip along the coast of Carvoeiro begins, visiting numerous caves, beaches and sinkholes.

Inside the cave, there is a small beach with a large opening in the ceiling, the Algar, this opening having been caused by rainwater dissolving the limestone, thus creating an opening through which light enters, illuminating its interior.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    (8)

    Q: Will I get seasick on Carvoeiro Tour by Land and Sea?

    A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
