Boat Trips
Visit the spectacular cave and rock formations (Grottoes) by one of many types of boats. Also, a trip up the River Arade and see turtles, egrets and storks, and swim in the crystal pools supplied from mountain springs called Fontes – these are said to have beneficial qualities. |

Beaches
There are many beaches along the Algarvean coast to explore - some large like Sagres shown here - some very small and tricky to get to like Praia de Marinha shown at the top of the page but well worth it!
