Praia dos Três Irmãos

Three towering rock stacks give this Alvor beach its name — golden sand, cliff tunnels, and quiet coves at low tide.

RecommendedA strong, worthwhile addition.

Essential for explorers seeking intimate coves and dramatic rock formations, provided you time your visit with the low tide to access the cliff tunnels.

Summer for swimming; the tunnels and caves are walkable at low tide.
