Berlenga Island Day Trip from Lisbon

Journey with us on a scenic and enchanting trip to Berlenge Grande on a day trip from Lisbon!

Berlenga Island Small-Group Day Trip from LisbonAfter your boat drops anchor at the tiny island’s port, you’ll enjoy some free time to pick up refreshments or stretch your legs with a stroll on the beach. Then, board a smaller boat destined for St John the Baptist Fort (Forte de São João Baptista), a 17th-century fortress built from the ruins of an old monastery.

Explore the stronghold with your guide and hear fascinating stories of invasions and pirate sieges. Then, uncover the island’s flora and fauna with a 1-hour walk through the Berlengas Nature Reserve (Reserva Natural das Berlengas).

Back at port, we’ll break for lunch at one of the seafront eateries (own expense) or, if you’ve brought food with you, have a picnic on the beach.

When the time comes, join back up with your group for the included cave kayaking excursion. Alternatively, if you’d prefer a less demanding activity, explore the caves in a glass-bottom boat.

Afterwards, we’ll travel back to Lisbon, where your tour concludes with a drop-off at your hotel.
