Algarve Beaches

Best in Portugal

The stunning Encosta do Lago Resort is a short walk to Praia Quinta do Lago which is accessed across a wooden boardwalk spanning the Ria Formosa natural reserve and makes walking or cycling to the beach easy. Sunset across the Ria Formosa creates a magical experience you will not forget. Praia do Quinta do Lago integrates with Praia do Ancão to the west and Praia de Faro to the east creating a stretch of coastal sand recognised in the top ten beaches in the world.

The beach areas are well groomed and have some fantastic restaurants such as 2 Passos, Gigi’s, António Ta Certo, Maria’s to name just a few. For the more adventurous, there are specific areas for water sports like paddle boarding and jet skiing which can be hired on the day. The beaches are life guarded in the summer months and key seasonal periods ensuring a safe and fun experience for the whole family.
