The colour of the cliffs, the long open beach and the walk along the top make it one of the most memorable landscapes of the southern coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The beach<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The beach stretches for around six kilometres, from the mouth of the Albufeira stream at Olhos de \u00c1gua to the marina of Vilamoura, divided in stretches with their own names. Above it, the cliffs \u2014 with their tones of ochre, red and white \u2014 are sculpted by the sea and crowned by pine woods, with paths and viewpoints along the edge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to see<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The red and golden cliffs, and the long beach below them.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The walk along the top of the cliffs, among the pine trees.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Olhos de \u00c1gua and the fishermen&#8217;s quarter at the western end.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The marina of Vilamoura, at the eastern end of the sands.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visiting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The beach is reached from Albufeira, Olhos de \u00c1gua and Vilamoura by road, with car parks at the main accesses; in the bathing season it is supervised, and outside it the ocean and the cliffs demand care. The cliffs crumble naturally, so walkers should keep to the paths and never climb the faces; the conditions and services follow the official information of the municipality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nearby<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The town of <a href=\"https:\/\/realdreams.pt\/de\/attractions-to-visit\/regions-of-portugal\/algarve-region\/albufeira\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Albufeira<\/a> and the resort of <a href=\"https:\/\/realdreams.pt\/de\/attractions-to-visit\/regions-of-portugal\/algarve-region\/vilamoura\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Vilamoura<\/a> face the beach at either end, between the old town and the marina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Information: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cm-albufeira.pt\/\" rel=\"noopener\">cm-albufeira.pt<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Image credit: Praia da Fal\u00e9sia, by Jose A., CC BY 2.0, via Wikimedia Commons.<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The great beach of red cliffs between Olhos de \u00c1gua and Vilamoura.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":59009,"parent":12380,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1074],"tags":[1072],"attraction-categ":[1059],"localidade":[128],"content-type":[],"grupo-de-experiencias":[],"experiencia-tipo":[],"gestao":[1102],"regioes_turisticas_term":[113],"class_list":["post-59014","to-visit","type-to-visit","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-city","tag-region-of-portugal","attraction-categ-natural-wonders-parks","localidade-albufeira","gestao-56-publicado","regioes_turisticas_term-algarve"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.8 (Yoast SEO v28.7) -
