Praia de Benagil

One of the most heavily photographed caves in the Algarve, in a fishing village called Benagil, near Carvoeiro, the Algar (Grotto) de Benagil is the standout feature of the local beach and is only accessible by water. The Praia de Benagil is much more than this singular algar, however; it is one of the quieter and more secluded spots due to limited parking nearby. It is also surrounded by the steep cliffs that are common in the Algarve.
