A restored village in the Vila do Bispo municipality, with a very unique and distinct vibe.

Viewpoints

Castelejo Viewpoint

Viewpoint at the top of the cliff at the northern end of Castelejo Beach, overlooking the beach, the neighboring Cordoama Beach, and the dramatic black schist rock formations. The cliffs in this area are among the highest in the Algarve, and the rugged landscape of the Vicentina Coast is particularly impressive here. Located in the Southwest Alentejo and Vicentina Coast Natural Park, it offers an almost panoramic perspective of the Atlantic Ocean and the wild coast.

Praia da Barriga
Secret Beaches

Praia da Barriga

Remote, quiet beach far off the main route, on the western Algarve coast. The somewhat challenging access keeps Barriga away from the crowds, rewarding visitors with a wide sandy area, spectacular cliffs, and a deep sense of isolation. It's one of the last truly wild stretches of coastline in the Algarve.

Praia da Figueira
Secret Beaches

Praia da Figueira

A more secluded beach near Salema, still without much tourist pressure. Framed by cliffs and coastal vegetation, this beach maintains a tranquil and natural environment almost all year round. The sand is golden, the waters are clear, and the feeling of being off the main routes is comforting.
