Coastal Gems

This collection spans the barrier islands and peninsulas of the Ria Formosa Natural Park in the eastern Algarve. Stretching from Faro to Manta Rota, these beaches are characterized by vast sandy dunes, calm lagoon waters, and Atlantic surf. Notable features include the historic anchor cemetery at Praia do Barril, accessible via a narrow-gauge train, and the uninhabited stretches of Ilha Deserta. Several locations offer designated nudist areas and Blue Flag certified waters, accessible by ferry or pedestrian bridges.
