The tour begins at 8:20 AM in front of Faro Train Station, where participants meet before departing by air-conditioned van for approximately 60 kilometers to Praia da Marinha. At Praia da Marinha, the first treasure, participants walk along the cliffs for about 50 to 60 minutes to see the rock formations known as the Bridge, the Heart, and the Titanic, which are around 24 million years old. After this hike, the group travels by van to Benagil for the second treasure, a 30-minute visit to the top of Benagil Cave. From this viewpoint, visitors can see inside the sea cave, which is approximately 16 million years old. Next, the tour continues to Algar Seco in Carvoeiro, the third treasure, where participants spend about one hour exploring rocky formations and caves, including the Boneca Cave, carved by seawater. The final stop is Senhora da Rocha and Praia Nova Beach, the fourth treasure, where the group spends about 90 minutes. Here, visitors walk through a rock tunnel connecting the two beaches and can see a small 16th-century chapel built on a cliff. If weather and sea conditions allow, participants may swim, relax on the beach, or use snorkeling equipment provided. The tour concludes with a return van ride of approximately 60 kilometers back to Faro. Included in the tour are a diving mask, umbrella, and air-conditioned van transport. Lunch and a backpack are not provided. Participants should wear comfortable clothing suitable for an easy to moderate hike and bring water, light food, and beach items if weather permits. Snorkeling is optional and only available if sea conditions are safe.
