Praia do Barrill offers the opportunity to relax amongst the beauty of the Parque Natural da Ria Formosa. Its endless miles of soft, white sand and uninterrupted sea views create an idyllic, tranquil setting.

Praia de Dona Ana is a magnificent cove, surrounded by huge, jagged cliffs and rock formations. Its colourful, sublime vista is often featured in magazines and advertorials for the Algarve. It is a lengthy climb, up wooden steps, to reach the beach but once you get there, the views are well worth the extra effort.

Praia de Falesia is the longest beach in the Algarve. Its beautiful, sandy shores are bordered by pine trees and cliffs, creating a magnificent beach idyll. The beach is well looked after and equipped with sun beds, bars and restaurants nearby.

In stark contrast, Praia da Rocha is one of the biggest and trendiest beaches in the area. Its huge shores are always busy and there are lots of beach clubs, beach sports facilities, watersports and live events to enjoy.

If you want to explore the Ria Formosa Natural Park in more depth than is possible from the resort, take one of the trails designed for hiking, cycling, kayaking or boat tours to explore the 60km of wetlands, islands, marshes and lagoons up close. Much of the wildlife here, are rare species that you won't find anywhere else.

Ponta da Piedade is another natural phenomena that can be explored from the coast or after an energetic hike, high into the cliffs.
