What’s New on the Water in Albufeira?
Golf may be the main reason you’re heading to the Algarve, but it’s certainly not the only way to enjoy the region. This time of year, the coastline comes alive again with everything that makes spring in Albufeira special: blue skies, warm breezes, and new experiences on and off the water.
Among the highlights? AlgarExperience, a leading watersports and leisure company based in Albufeira Marina, has just rolled out its April 2025 lineup, and it’s packed with scenic cruises, coastal dining, and close encounters with the Algarve’s natural beauty.
From dolphin-watching to hidden beach barbecues, AlgarExperience brings together comfort, flavour, and sea air in ways that pair perfectly with a golf holiday in the Algarve.
Beach Barbecues Are Back – From 3 April
A favourite among visitors and locals alike, the Beach Barbecue experience returns on 3 April. The trip combines a scenic cruise along the Algarve coast, including a stop at the world-famous Benagil caves, with an exclusive barbecue lunch on a secluded beach.
Expect an open bar, curated tasting menu, and a full afternoon of barefoot luxury.
Dolphin Watching and Benagil Caves – Relaunch of the Belize III
After a major upgrade to the Belize III vessel, the popular Dolphins and Benagil Caves tour is back in full swing. It’s a chance to spot dolphins in their natural habitat while exploring some of the most iconic rock formations in southern Europe.
It’s not just a boat trip, it’s a chance to see the Algarve from a completely different angle.
New Experience: Benagil & Coast – Aboard the “Unwind” Catamaran
For those after something a little more refined, AlgarExperience has launched a new version of its Benagil and coastal tour, this time aboard the Unwind, a sleek and comfortable catamaran offering a more spacious, relaxed atmosphere.
What sets this experience apart is the onboard tasting menu. Included in every tour (at no extra cost), guests can choose from:
-
Sabores do Algarve: A trio of regional sweets with Algarve liqueurs
-
Regional Wine Tasting
-
Port Wine & Chocolate
-
Iced Teas with Almond Biscuits
-
Sea & Flavour: Algarve-style tinned seafood tasting
A perfect pairing with a relaxing day off the course.
