    Destaco a excelente organização, a pontualidade e o cuidado dedicado aos visitantes durante toda a atividade.
    Recomendo vivamente
    … More esta visita com esta equipa extraordinária. Foi um dia inesquecível, que ficará para sempre nas nossas memórias, e esperamos voltar em breve.

    Adorámos a travessia de catamaran até às Berlengas! O staff foi bastante porreiro e animado! O meu filho acabou por ficar famoso entre eles pelo pânico da viagem 😂😂 a ida para a ilha é pra corajosos 😅
    O passeio às grutas vale bem a pena! Aproveitámos
    … More (e fomos os únicos corajosos do barco) para fazer o regresso ao porto a pé dando a volta à ilha desde o forte. Vale muito a pena o passeio de 45/50min.
    Obrigado pela experiência. Voltaremos um dia certamente! 👍🏻

    Uma viagem muito agradável ainda que algum movimento na ida, o que a fez mais interessante. O passeio na ilha, as grutas e o forte são dignos de se ver. Mar azul e verde, gaivotas, rochas, peixes e aquele cheiro maravilhoso. A tripulação muito atenciosos … More e simpáticos. 5 estrelas!!

    O tour foi excelente! A tripulação muito atenciosa, foram simpáticos, brincalhões e ainda nos forneceram várias informações. Quanto ao lugar, não tenho nem o que falar: belíssimo! Como a própria equipe recomenda, o ideal é que vão com calçados confortáveis, … More pois após a finalização do passeio nas grutas, podemos desembarcar no forte para conhece-lo e depois subir a escadaria para pegar alguma das trilhas, se você for sedentária como eu, vá devagar e com calma pois essa subida é meio puxada! Depois as trilhas são tranquilas! Amei e recomendo!

Which pack to choose for visiting the Berlenga Islands?

All our packs include the round-trip crossing from Peniche to the Berlenga Island on the BerlengaTur catamaran and about 4 hours on the island. The difference lies in the experiences included. The BerlengaPass fee (ICNF) is mandatory and purchased separately: 3€ per adult, 1.50€ for ages 6–18 and over 65, free under 6 (registration required).

Pack 1 – Round Trip (25€)

The simplest and most economical option: round-trip crossing and complete free time on the island for the beach, the trails and the fort. Ideal for those who want flexibility or travel with very young children.

Pack 2 – Round Trip + Caves (35€)

Our most balanced pack. It includes the visit to the sea caves on the glass-bottom boat — children's favourite experience — plus free time on the island. The right choice for most visitors.

Pack 3 – Round Trip + Caves + Guided Tour (40€)

For those who want to go deeper: it includes everything in Pack 2 plus a guided tour with historical and environmental context of the Biosphere Reserve. Perfect for the curious and nature lovers.

Pack 4 – Round Trip + Caves + Snorkelling (45€)

The most complete and immersive experience. It adds to the caves a snorkelling session in the crystal-clear waters around the island, in one of the cleanest oceans in Europe. Ideal for adventurers and sea lovers.

How to choose?

If it's your first visit, Pack 2 offers the best balance. For the richest experience, choose Pack 4. Book in advance, especially in July and August — places and the BerlengaPass sell out fast.
