This beach is fantastic! It's not as crowded as some other beaches, and there are plenty of cafes, shops, and gelato stands nearby. You could easily spend an entire day here!

The beach was lovely, with caves and powerful waves. The jet ski ride was secure, as riders were dropped off on a boat with lifeguards and stayed in the boat until they returned. Photos were available for 20 euros, taken by the lifeguards on the boat. The parachute ride wasn't as enjoyable as it was like flying a kite in the sea, not going very high and controlled by a rope by the lifeguards in the boat, but it was safe.

This beach is stunning! It's not huge, but there are plenty of beds and spots to choose from. The sand is golden, the waves are quite big, and the water is crystal clear and delightfully chilly. Plus, there are restaurants and shops right on the beach. In my opinion, this is the best and most beautiful beach in Albufeira. It's the perfect place for a day at the beach and I highly recommend visiting at least once. For those looking for a bit more excitement, there's a path along the cliffs, so it really has something for everyone.

This beach is spotless and offers plenty of activities for kids, such as paddle boat and body board rentals, all at a reasonable price that won't break the bank for families with children. You can even rent a four-person boat and still have a few pennies left over for a meal at one of the restaurants along the main strip, where prices remain consistent. If you're looking for a more tranquil experience, you can take a leisurely walk along the cliffs to a smaller, quieter beach.

This beach is an ideal spot for relaxation or leisurely strolls. It's clean and well-equipped with chairs and beds, and the water is pleasantly cool. There are also some stunning caves, and of course, the lovely ladies!
