On a private boat the route is yours: linger at the cave, skip the crowded beach, stop to swim where you like. Prices here are per boat rather than per person, which is why a private charter often works out cheaper than it looks once you are four or more. Most operators run two to four hours along the Benagil coastline and take groups up to eight or twelve.

Check availability →Private charters here come down to two yacht listings, both for two hours: a yacht rental starting at €1,323 for up to 12 guests and a yacht charter from €600 for up to 14. Both are priced per boat, so the figure on the card is the whole bill, not a fee per head.
The cheaper listing describes a cruise along the coast past the beaches of São Rafael, Coelha, Castelo and Galé, with time for a swim in the Atlantic. The dearer one is pitched as a relaxed trip to find hidden spots and have a drink or two along the Algarve coast.
Private suits groups who want to set the mood themselves: a birthday, a family spanning several generations, friends who would rather not share a deck with strangers. The cards give a maximum group size but no minimum, so a smaller party can book too, though the price is for the whole boat.
Both listings have few reviews, so read them and check the details yourself: what is included on board (drinks, food, towels), where the boat leaves from, how much the route can be adjusted, and the cancellation terms. If someone gets seasick, mention it when you book.
Good to know: Compare the total boat price against the shared per-person price times your group size before assuming private is the expensive option. From roughly six people it frequently is not.
Good to know
Per boat. The cards show a price for the whole group, up to 12 people on one listing and up to 14 on the other. Splitting the total between everyone aboard gives your real cost per head, so fill the boat if you can, but ask the operator whether a smaller group changes anything.
The listings describe a coastal route, and a private trip is where you can ask for changes. We cannot say how flexible each skipper is, so write to the operator before booking and say what matters most, such as a swim stop or a particular beach.
Usually the shared boats cost less for a couple, since you would be paying for the whole boat. A private trip makes sense when privacy or a special occasion matters more than the bill. Work out the per-person figure first and decide whether the quiet is worth the difference.
