    Stunning beach

    Mike upon mile of golden sands. Absolutely gorgeous. It was quiet and peaceful when we were there in April but nice and warm. Pity you can’t walk all the way to Lagos but it was brilliant.

    Beautiful sizeable beach with number of restaurants available

    Lovely surroundings including some rock formations to look at. If you are a little more adventurous then you can climb on top/under some to access more secluded parts of the coastline which offer even more amazing views/rock formations. I have given 5 star because it...More

    Beautiful beach and rock formations

    Take the time to make your way down the beach and walk into and through the rock formations. The area is very picturesque and well worth the time to visit.

    I would say minimal surf. Take the time to travel to Praia do Amado and Praia Da Bordeira which is on the west coast about 45 minutes from Portimao. The area offers you great scenery, lookouts and surf in both beaches. Have... More

    Hi there. Sorry for the delayed reply. No rock formations at this beach and that's probably the main reason I like it. All the beaches with rock formations mean lots of steps up and down the cliffs
