Praia Grande de Pêra, Sand beach in Pêra, Portugal.
The beach stretches over 2 kilometers along the Atlantic coast, featuring natural dunes and wetlands with wooden walkways for beach access.
The beach remained relatively undeveloped until recent decades, previously serving as a secluded area before the construction of nearby resorts.
The surrounding Algarve region contains multiple archaeological sites, including Silves Castle and the Cathedral of Silves near the beach area.
Visitors can access facilities including parking spaces, restaurants, restrooms, and seasonal lifeguard services from June through September each year.
The beach connects to Lagoa dos Salgados on its eastern end, creating a natural habitat where various waterfowl species gather throughout the year.
