Hello, Berlengas
An island day off Peniche, Portugal. Start here.
A pink granite island ten kilometres out to sea, sea caves you can sail through and some of the clearest water in Portugal.
€3 to step ashore.
Every visitor needs the Berlengas Pass. Only 550 people are allowed on the island at a time.
How the pass works
Caves, trails and a fort.
Walk to the lighthouse, cross the causeway, swim in a sheltered cove.
