The south coast of Portugal is rich in beautiful beaches, with cliffs and rocks, or long sandy beaches, located in isolated nature or near cities with cafes, bars, and water fun rentals. Some of our beaches were considered the most beautiful beaches in Europe and the world. We will show you the best beaches in the south of Portugal and tell you the highlights of each.
It is a pretty sandy beach, that forms the end of the lagoon of Ria Formosa. In the village you will find few restaurants with local sea products. It is only possible to have access to the beach during middle or low tide.
