Algarve beaches

 

There are many beautiful beaches all within approx 15 minutes drive from the villa. The beaches nearby have the “blue flag”, beautiful large sandy beaches with protected dunes, and are amongst the cleanest in Europe.The family orientated beach “Vale do Garrao” has plenty of beach restaurants, and water sports. There are also accessible beaches nearby.

The “Accessible Beaches – Beaches for Everyone” project is an initiative of the National Coordination Committee for the European Year of People with Disabilities (CNCAEPD) to make river and sea beaches accessible to people with reduced mobility and to raise awareness and provide information about the most accessible beaches.

Accessible beaches comply with access requirements, such as ramps, footpaths and walkways, support facilities (such as bars and first-aid posts), handrails, adapted toilet facilities, parking places and lower bars and counters. The beaches that meet these requirements are awarded the “Accessible Beach” flag and are promoted at an international level.

With 200 km of Algarve coastline, there are almost too many beaches and coves to count and there are certainly too many Algarve beaches to cover here. However, you can find general information about what the beaches are like in central, western and eastern Algarve.  You can also find out why it is such an honour when Algarve beaches receive the Blue Flag award and read about the ‘Accessible Beaches’ scheme, which makes choosing a suitable so much easier, particularly for disabled people.

In general, whatever you are looking for in a beach, you can be assured that the Algarve has a beach perfect for you!

Loulé Municipality encompasses an extensive coastline, offering about 13.5 km with fine golden sand beaches, long hours of sunshine, a pleasant climate average, sea water temperatures around 22°C and some of the best tourist facilities in the Algarve and the country.

On the coast the main areas that stand out are Vilamoura with its marina and for its quality and sophistication; the luxurious resorts of Vale do Lobo, Dunas Douradas and Quinta do Lago; thirteen excellent golf courses, as well as vast natural areas of pine woods, marshes and dunes, all included in the Ria Formosa Natural Park, where nature hikes and bird watching are widely practised.
