We followed the coastline and went in and out of many of the caves. Luis and Mariana were excellent guides! She provided some history of the area and detailed information about the caves. It is SO beautiful to see from the water. This is a must-do activity! Highly recommend!

This boat tour was absolutely amazing. The check-in process was super quick and easy. The staff were so nice and provided a great tour. Our boat driver and guide were so personable and funny, which really added to the fun of it all. I would highly recommended Blue Fleet to those visiting Lagos.

This was an amazing tour! Guide spoke great English, and the driver was super skilled. Small boat meant you can go inside the different caves, which was awesome, and also kept the group small as there were only 10 people on our boat. Highly recommend!

Wonderful and short boat tour. We were taken west along the coast, shown all the beaches, and were entertained.
Brittney_S, Jul 2026
This was incredible. The scenery here was breathtaking and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The skipper got us into every one of the caves and prompted us for how to see the best views. It was the perfect amount of time out on the water and the tour guide had some nice details to share about the coast.

A big thank you to Rita and our boat driver for a fantastic tour to Ponte da Piedade. Rita shared interesting information about the rock, and the boat driver safely guided us through the caves despite the waves.
The tour was enjoyable, professional, and well organized. Highly recommended!
Greetings from Lithuania! 🇱🇹😊

Very nice excursion. The guide was very pleasant. She was knowledgeable and funny. The length of the excursion was perfect.

This was an excellent tour. We got to see a lot of the grottos and our driver was very skilled in navigating us through the arches. Our tour guides were very friendly and helpful. Definitely worth doing when visiting Lagos.
Hannah_R, Jun 2026
This was an awesome tour right out of the Lagos marina. This was a small group with a smaller boat, so we were able to go into some of the smaller caves and get closer to some of the cliffs that a bigger boat or kayakers would have struggled with. Highly reccomend!!

This was a nice calm boat ride through the grottos of ponta da piedade. The tour guides explained places we were passing by and their significance. Overall, a great time and fun to go through different caves and arched rocks.

The boat was perfect size...under 10 passengers. Captain Antonio was spectacular, fitting into spaces that seemed impossible. Scenery we have never seen before. Highly, highly recommend.

Excellent tour of caves and coastline. Included history, humor, and local insight. Highlight of our trip. Family w young adults.
StevenBrent_W, May 2026
Great experience. Sraff were wonderful and helpful. Amazing views of the grotto. They take you in at least a dozen.
Fyse_J, May 2026
This was such a fun experience! Very easy-to-find pick up spot with very friendly employees! Our Skipper was Luís and our Guide was Mariana and both funny, kind, and knowledgeable. This is the best way to see the coast and the various beaches of Lagos especially if you don’t want to spend half of your day in the water. Total experience was about 1.5 hours and we were able to see everything we wanted to. I would highly recommend!

Tour well organized. Guides were pleasant and knowledgable. Crowded in parts with other tours. Would be better with audio device as the listening to guides was difficult.
Patricia_S, Apr 2026
A great 90 min exploration of the coastal grottoes from Lagos, well run. A gentler ride than similar tours of the coastal grottoes further east, it allows more cave entrances and a different feel. Do both!
Heather_J, Apr 2026
The whole process was well organized and the boat was clean and comfortable. The pictures show few people in the boat but we had 10. You could still see well but pictures are a bit misleading.
Gbemi_O, Apr 2026
Lovely experience with Mariana and Luis. Highly recommended. We got to learn a lot more about Lagos and the caves as we sailed with them. They were friendly and knowledgeable.
Homer_A, Apr 2026
Great boat tour - beautiful to see the grottos and rock structures along the coast from water level. Totally different perspective from walking the boardwalks above! Informative, friendly tour guides.
Mabs_C, Apr 2026
Excellent short trip round the caves and marina departure. The tour guides were excellent and knowledgeable.
Belinda_B, Mar 2026
The boat tour was awesome. The guides were friendly, knowledgable and very skilled operating the boat through small caves and inlets. They made it lots of fun!
Diane_W, Mar 2026
The tour itself was great. Very informative and entertaining. However, we were not notified of the time change. Our ticket said 11:00 and to show up 15 minutes early. We arrived at 10:45 and found out that the tour time had changed to 10:45 and that the boat had already left. We had to wait an hour for the next tour.
David_M, Mar 2026
We had a wonderful tour of the caves and cliffs. Although seas were rough and we were warned that we may not be able to enter some caves, our crew did get into one which was a great experience. The crew were professional and very pleasant. The opportunity to see these magnificent cliffs and caves was fantastic experience. Highly recommend

Excellent tour on a small boat to Ponta da Piedade caves. Great guide who explained everything. Since it was a decent and small boat with approximately 10 people, they were able to take the boat inside the caves and that took our experience to entirely another level. Going home with great memories of this adventure.
Kathleen_B, Dec 2025
It will be roller coaster like fun! Plan to get a little wet and have many hoots and howls of thrill and excitement!
Brad_H, Dec 2025
Knowledgeable, friendly and funny staff. Would recommend to anyone that wants a great experience sight seeing the coast of Lagos
Carmel_R, Nov 2025
Book early in your holiday as your trip may be postponed due to rough sea conditions. We booked for Tuesday and went on Friday. Viator emailed our new passes as they were notified by Blue Fleet office in Lagos - located at train station. It was a truly memorable experience.
Maria_S, Oct 2025
We enjoyed the 1 hour boat ride. The captain got us into lots of little caves. The guide told us some history of the area and the names of the beaches we were passing. There weren’t too many other boats and kayaks in the water which made the excursion even more pleasant.
Mark_R, Oct 2025
Great tour! The guide was great and the boat captain did a great job getting us up close to the caves.

Oh wow, don’t miss this experience when coming to Lagos Portugal. The rock formations the beauty unbelievable. Lots of fun fax and information about the area. Not to mention the closeness to the grotto that you get to experience with this adventure.
Priscilla_A, Oct 2025
We loved visiting the area on a smaller boat, because we were able to get into areas where the larger boats could not. The guides were very knowledgeable and made the ride fun and educational.
