Get ready for an unforgettable adventure along the crystal-clear waters of Ponta da Piedade in Lagos.
Your journey begins at Lagos Marina, where you’ll board our spacious and comfortable catamaran. Relax as we sail along the stunning coastline towards the iconic Ponta da Piedade — famous for its dramatic cliffs, secret grottos, and natural rock arches.
Once we arrive, the real adventure begins: slide straight from the catamaran into your kayak and set off on a guided tour of approximately 1.15 hour. Paddle through narrow passages, explore hidden caves and beaches, and marvel at the unique rock formations carved by nature — all while your experienced guide shares stories and ensures your safety.
After your kayaking experience, you’ll be pulled back onto the catamaran where you’ll have about 10/15 minutes to swim, soak up the sun... or take the plunge down our onboard slide straight into the ocean!
Throughout the entire tour, the catamaran stays nearby to offer full support, comfort, and peace of mind.
A perfect mix of adventure, natural beauty, and relaxation — all in one unforgettable experience.

Awesome kayaking with great crew
Janice_M, October 2026
Alfonso our tour guide was great! He was very friendly and witty and let us explore as long as we wanted on the kayaks. Ricardo our boat driver was also great, and let us swim after as long as we wanted. The whole crew was great!

A fun experience! Do it!
waynecT2943RY, October 2026
We had a great kayaking experience. The caves are beautiful and it's fantastic to see the coastline from the water. The tour was excellent. Our crew, Luis, Joao, Tiago and Rui were fantastic. They were fun and informative and made everyone feel safe. They boat you out to the launch point which is nice and then pull you back up on the boat when finished and boat you back to the marina. At the end we had a chance to jump off the boat and have a float in the ocean while the crew loaded the kayaks. The tour started right on time and we were leaving the marina within minutes of our scheduled time. You paddle in pairs so it's easier and not too hard on the shoulders. I paddled on my own and it was very manageable also. We absolutely recommend this tour. Thanks for a great day!

Highlight of our trip to Lagos
nathanlM572NR, October 2026
3 of us went on a day where the waves were too big to go into all of the caves and our guides weren't sure if we should go or not. After half of our group decided to go back, one of the more experienced guides took the few of us with some kayaking experience out and we managed to see some of the caves. The waves made it a lot more exciting to get in and out but the water was pretty calm in the actual caves. The guides gave us a lot of great recommendations for things to do in Lagos as well. Great experience all around.

Beware scammers
kahru, October 2026
These unprofessional cowboys took payment then cancelled immediately
Claiming bad sea conditions we have been on the coast all week and the conditions are still!!
A shower of conmen avoid at all cost there are better options than these scammers!!
Response from the operator · DaysofAdventureLagos We are uncertain to which situation/tour this review relates. We only cancel our tours if the sea conditions do not allow us to operate safely - and in those cases we process the respective refunds right away.
