Majestic cliffs lift the white-washed buildings of Carvoeiro aloft, while the brilliant ocean plays underneath, lapping a semicircle of golden sand. One of the most beautiful resort towns in the Algarve, Carvoeiro is the ideal spot from which to discover the area's many decadent delights.
Life at night
Besides visiting the bars that line the Algarve coast, which offer refreshing beverages into the early hours, you can also visit Algar Seco. There's a truly unique night out to be found sequestered in these spellbinding rock formations, just a kilometre east of Carvoeiro Beach. Below the resort itself, there are beachside bars, where you can enjoy superb cocktails while watching the sun set over the water.
Exploring the Algarve
Navy Beach is considered one of the ten most beautiful in Europe, and the Fort of Santa Caterina is a cultural favourite in the area. When the sea is calm, which is normally in the mornings, the conditions are perfect for exploring the area by boat. Along the Carvoeiro coastline, have a gander at the picturesque fishing village of Ferragudo, the Roman tower, and Smugglers’ Cove.
Highlights
Navy Beach
This perfect stretch of Algarve sand, protected to the north by thirty-metre-high cliffs, is an ideal spot for swimming, diving, and snorkelling. In the summer, you can hire sunbathing equipment and pedal boats on the beach. Hire a fishing boat to venture out to the remarkable sea grottos.
Algar Seco
Turquoise pools overlook the ocean at this idyllic resort, dotted with palm trees and sun loungers. Deep blue skies are met with the azure ocean just beyond its walls, which embrace visitors in an ambiance of comfort and ease. Order cocktails poolside and live the Algarve dream.
Carvoeiro Boardwalk
This incredible 570-metre-long boardwalk is one of the top attractions in this area of the Algarve. You'll be stunned by the seaside views, most breathtaking at sunset, when the ocean is transformed into liquid gold.
Carvalho Beach
If you could design the ideal beach, Carvalho Beach might just be the outcome. A perfect gradient fans out into the water, creating a warm, bath-like stretch of sea that gradually deepens, making for ultimate relaxation. Sheltered by rocky outcrops pocked with fascinating caves and topped with verdant greenery, the finely sanded beach, caressed by slight breezes, offers some shade for those who prefer it.
Vale de Centeanes Beach
Another stunner, this beach is less sheltered, making it the perfect spot for watersports. Try exploring the underwater caves with a snorkel, and grab a drink at the beach bar when you come up for air. The whole family will enjoy paddling around in the water at this broad, spotless, fine-sand beach.
