We will then arrive at the Cave that we had seen from above.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I tell you that although my interest was exclusively to see this cave, the truth is that absolutely the entire trip is worth it. Places that we have seen in this video, such as Carvoeiro, we saw again from the water, which always changes the perspective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So here I leave you this plus and recommendation in the Algarve and now if we are going to  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"PRACTICAL_INFORMATION\"><\/span>PRACTICAL INFORMATION<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tolls\"><\/span>Tolls<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We made the trip by car from Spain.

You have to keep in mind that the charges don&#8217;t arrive right away.
