Activity itinerary
Albufeira (Pass by)
Come on, I suggest you to discover the history of what is now called the “Saint-Tropez of Portugal”! And to get this nickname, it’s because it’s come a long way, because not so long ago, Albufeira was still a simple fishing village.
Albufeira (Pass by)
Who says coastal town means fishing, and who says fishing means fish on his plate! Review to shellfish lovers, here in Albufeira you will be served!
Marina de Albufeira (Pass by)
Here, as you have seen, you change scenery completely when entering the marina of Albufeira. A newly installed marina in the city, it unveils beautiful and colourful houses that give a touch of pep to this somewhat off-center area of the historic centre.
Marina de Albufeira (Pass by)
Here you are in front of a magnificent view of the marina! The colourful buildings of this gigantic complex illuminate the docks of the marina of Albufeira.
Albufeira (Pass by)
I take advantage of this moment as you walk along the port of Albufeira, to give you some anecdotes about the Algarve. After that, you will know all about this beautiful Portuguese region that attracts many visitors every year.
Albufeira (Pass by)
The sea, the beach, the sun... This is what makes Albufeira so beautiful and attractive! The ocean stretching as far as the eye can see, the boats entering and leaving the port, the people quietly heading to the beach, towels in hand...
R. Latino Coelho 29 (Pass by)
Here you find the so-called Deck Observation of Albufeira, one of the best known viewpoints. In front of you lies the sea as far as the eye can see, which crashes on the beaches and cliffs of the Algarvian city.
Elevador Do Peneco (Pass by)
28 metres: this is what separates you from Peneco beach which is just below your feet. In 2008, architect Joao Castro Ferreira built this concrete lift that connects the upper part of the city to one of the busiest beaches in Albufeira.
R. da Bateria 24 (Pass by)
With its yellow sandstone cliffs surrounding it and golden sand, Peneco beach is one of the most famous in Albufeira and the Algarve in general. Here, everyone finds something: already, its long line of sand allows to welcome everyone!
Praça da República 5 (Pass by)
Take a look on your right! Before taking us down this typically Algarvian street, admire the tower in front of you.
Porta do Norte (Pass by)
It is one of the most notable remains of the city: the porta do Norte. Not much remains, I grant you, but the last stones that remain and adorn the junction between Joaquim Pedro Samora and Henrique Calado streets have passed through the centuries!
Praça da República (Pass by)
Place de la République is one of the main squares in Albufeira!
Museu Municipal de Arqueologia de Albufeira (Pass by)
Reviews for history lovers, and those who want to discover the city’s past and identity!
Largo Engenheiro Duarte Pacheco (Pass by)
It is one of the largest squares in Albufeira! Check-out point preferred by the locals to meet before going out to bars, the square Engenheiro Duarte Pacheco is a pretty esplanade surrounded by white houses with colourful moldings and shaded by the few trees that stand in its centre.
35 Rua 5 De Outubro Building (Pass by)
Aaah la Rua 5 de Outubro! Festive, lively, dynamic, these are the words that characterise this street full of life, in which you will discover all the soul of Albufeira!
R. 5 de Outubro 3 (Pass by)
In front of you is an amazing tunnel that leads straight to Peneco Beach, one of the beaches in city centre Albufeira.
Igreja de São Sebastião (Pass by)
Here you are in front of a typical Algarve church: the Church of San Sebastian. It is as white as the other facades of the city, and for good reason, it has been completely whitewashed like most other buildings in Albufeira.
Rua Miguel Bombarda (Pass by)
This church, like that of San Sebastian, dates from the 18th century. And like its neighbour, it mixes elements of traditional style, with whitewashed walls, and baroque elements, recognisable by the shape of its facade.
Praia dos Pescadores (Pass by)
Praia dos Pescadores is one of the best known beaches in Albufeira, convenient for families and popular with both Albufeira residents and visitors.
Pau da Bandeira Viewpoint (Pass by)
Miradouro do Pau da Bandeira is perfect for taking a beautiful picture of the beach and the white houses of Albufeira! Recognised as a very enjoyable spot to admire the sunsets, it marks the end of the historic centre.
