Praia Barranco das Belharucas

The Praia Barranco das Belharucas beach, located approximately 5 kilometers east of Albufeira in Portugal, boasts a sandy terrain and is staffed with a trained lifeguard, making it an ideal destination for families with children. This beach derives its name from the little European bee-eater birds that nest in the cliff side, creating a unique wilderness experience. During low tide, visitors can witness spectacular rock formations that resemble pools, which often capture fish, providing an interesting spectacle. This natural wonder can also be admired from the local bars and restaurants. Visitors can also enjoy other amenities such as loungers, restrooms, showers, and parking.
