Amoreira Landscape
Local tips
The river area is calmer and safer for children than the ocean side. Be cautious of currents near the mouth at high tide. Visit at low tide to enjoy the maximum sandy area. The sunset with the river in the foreground offers one of the best views of the western Algarve.

Bordeira
Village and surrounding area with trails and access to very open landscapes on the western Algarve coast. Bordeira maintains the spirit of a rural Vicentine community, with few houses, silence, and an intimate relationship with the land. The paths leading from the village lead to landscapes of raw and expansive beauty, among fields, cliffs, and ocean.
Aljezur
Pontal da Carrapateira
One of the best spots for cliffs and wild landscapes in the Algarve, Pontal da Carrapateira is a windy promontory that juts out over the Atlantic with dramatic force. The views over the coast, the waves crashing against the rocks, and the immensity of the ocean create a powerful sensory experience. It's a perfect place for contemplation and landscape photography.
Aljezur
Fóia
The highest point in the Algarve, at 902 meters, Foia offers wide panoramas that extend from the Algarve coast to the Monchique mountains and, on clearer days, to Cabo de Sao Vicente and the African coast. It is the top of the Algarve in every sense, an ideal place to appreciate the scale and diversity of the landscape in this region.
Monchique
Praia da Murração
One of the wildest and least frequented beaches on the Algarve's Costa Vicentina. Murracao is battered by Atlantic winds and waves, with a raw and powerful landscape that contrasts with the southern coastline. The difficult access keeps it in a state of near virginity, ideal for those seeking unspoiled nature.
