Opening the throttle out of Albufeira

A RIB puts the nearby Benagil cave and Praia da Marinha, and the parade of coves towards Galé and Armação de Pêra within day-trip range. Usual departure points: Albufeira’s colourful marina, west of the old town.

Today's weather, today's plan

To factor in on these waters: gentle water below the cliffs in the morning, the sea breeze arriving at midday. Shape the route around the morning forecast and keep a fuel margin.
