Often seen as more of a local’s beach, than a tourist beach. It’s a thin strip of beach facing the ocean on one side and facing the Ria Formosa lagoon on the other. Stretching for nearly 9km, Sun beds and parasols are available to hire if you didn’t bring your own. For the more active visitors, there are several surf schools which offer surfing lessons and surfboards for hire. Kayaks and stand-up paddle boards are also available and several restaurants. And if you come real early in the morning just at sunrise, you might catch a dolphin swimming in the lagoon on the right side of the bridge. Driving from Javali is 43 Minutes

Reachable by bike (you can rent with us) or walking (around 1 hour) trough the salt pans where you can see a lot of different birds, like flamingos, storks...

Most accessible and popular beach. You can get there by boat, car or bus nr 14 and 16, and Uber :) This beach is best for sunsets, people say. :D

You can go to Praia de Faro to have a sporty day! With many activities, you can try SUP, surf, wind surf, bodyboard, or even just get tanned by the beach or in one of many bars along the coast. By night there some nice places with live music.
