Their 2-hour journey ventures beyond typical tourist trails, offering paddlers intimate access to the region’s hidden caves and wild beaches only reachable by sea.
Launching from Praia de, 8365-101 Armação de Pêra, kayakers glide across crystal-clear waters toward a series of 3 to 4 secluded sea caves etched into ancient limestone cliffs.
