Luxury Yacht Charters from Vilamoura Marina

Sail the Algarve your way—calm morning cruises, sunset sails, Benagil cave options, and full-day adventures.

Why Vilamoura?

Centrally located and sheltered, Vilamoura Marina is the perfect starting point to explore dramatic cliffs, secret coves, and picture-perfect swim spots. Our crewed yachts deliver a relaxed, premium experience with seamless boarding and concierge-style service.

  • Short (3h): Vilamoura → sea caves & coves east/west → swim stop → return

  • Medium (4h): Extended coastline with more time at anchor; Benagil feasible in good conditions

  • Full-day (7–10h): Benagil & Praia da Marinha, or Ria Formosa island hopping (tides permitting)

Tip: Sea and tide conditions affect distance and cave access. Your skipper will confirm the best route on the day.
