33. The Caves of Algarve, Portugal

The coastline of Algarve, located in the southernmost section of Portugal, is rich with scenic grottoes, hollows, and caves carved into the limestone. Most of the beautiful caves can be found close to Lagos on the isolated beaches. You can visit them via boat or dinghy.

Perhaps the most popular one is Benagil’s Algar. The various sand shades, textures, and dimensions of the complex rock formations, and the crystalline water provide a truly picturesque experience, especially during the day when the constantly changing light filters in through the holes to make one’s view even more impressive.

  1. You need to check out the “Cuevas de Drach” in Mallorca, Spain!!!! Beautiful natural caves.

  2. The name sounds familiar. Perhaps I wrote about it elsewhere. Perhaps someone else from Spain mentioned it? Doe it get a lot of press?
    At any rate, thanks for reading my stuff and thanks for the comment!
