Praia do Pinhão (Pass By)

This beach can be reached through a footpath that departs from Praia D. Ana and runs along the top of the cliff. The sand is small and embedded between high cliffs, carved in carbonated rocks of warm and intense colors. A huge natural arch rises to the east of the beach, on the other side a viewpoint was built with a staircase that goes down to the sea, allowing you to dive in the salt water without going through the sand. An extensive immersed rocky area invites you to enjoy underwater walks. Although small and very close to the urban fabric of the city of Lagos, the beach is relatively quiet.

Praia Dona Ana (Pass By)

You will get a sea perspective from one of the most popular beaches of Lagos. Don't forget to make a photograph!Praia Dona Ana is in the area known as Costa D 'Oiro, name due to the yellow / golden color of the rocks that surround this beach and which is the largest among the several beaches of unique beauty, protected from the wind and calm and clear waters, located between the city port to the Ponta da Piedade lighthouse. The proximity of Lagos makes it popular in the summer. The rocks on the beach provide shade for visitors. The sea is calm and bathers usually swim to the base of the cliffs and sharp rocks that emerge from the water.History:The beach was named after the nun Ana, who lived in the nunnery of Lagos. During World War I, soldiers invaded the convent and murdered all the nuns, with the exception of D. Ana, who had access to a tunnel between the convent and the beach. D. Ana fled through the tunnel and was the only one who survived.

Praia do Barranco do Martinho (Pass By)

Hidden by hills and rock formations, Barranco do Martinho Beach is another one of the beaches in Lagos that escape the radar of hordes of tourists. Its calm waters create the illusion that one is facing a lagoon. The sand color is white and gives us the impression that we are the first to step on it.

Ponta da Piedade (Pass By)

The cliffs of the Ponta da Piedade headland is one of the finest natural features of the Algarve. This dramatic limestone coastline is formed of sea pillars, fragile rock arches and hidden grottos, all of which have been chiselled-out by savage winter storms.The Ponta da Piedade is a bleak and windswept headland, and the beauty of the region is only discovered on descending the cliffs, where the exposed cliffs reveal their golden colour, and the turquoise sea waters lap precariously balanced rock formations. The headland can only be described as stunning.Come along with us and navigate along this wonderful coast and enjoy the beautiful rock formations, the fantastic beaches, the small coves and the sea caves known worldwide for their unique features.Relax and marvel at the sunset and its mystical colors. Take your time and make beautiful pictures.Enjoy all these breathtaking views as you cruise along the coast in a modern, comfortable boat with padded seats.
