NATURE

Simple pleasures of life

Why not walk to the beach to burn off the unwanted calories? It’s a must… Observe the castle history at Praia da Angrinha, then move along to the Praia Grande beach. On winter or spring mornings and you’ll find yourself as the only one here…

Watch the boats coming into the harbor with fresh fish!

If you feeling adventurous walk on the cliff edge and enjoy the natural flora and fauna.

Stop at Pintadinho or Caneiros beach and have a drink, or walk back to the village to savor that perfect fresh barbecued fish at any of the village front local restaurants.

The afternoon can be spent at a lazy sleep on your terrace or by the pool, your perfect vacation on a calm and relaxing spot!

 

 

 

 

FOOD & DRINKS

Tastes algarve style

In the evening you may just get a chicken or pizza take-away from any village restaurant, unless you feel like going out and enjoy the village evening atmosphere and, maybe, a dance at the main square.

The village has many restaurants for all price ranges and all taste buds.

A water taxi can take you across Praia da Rocha Marina for more action until the next day is up. You will find a young and relaxing atmosphere for a drink at the NosoloÁqua.

SHOPPING

Our traditional products

Most villages and towns have souvenir shops where Portuguese typical goods are relatively low priced.

Bigger cities like Portimão, Lagos, Faro, Albufeira, Loulé have a wider range of stores. There are also several shopping centers close by like Aqua at Portimão or Algarve Shopping at Guia. Local open air markets are best to the hustle and bustle of the shops, here you can purchase pretty much everything.
