Praia do Alemão, Beach in Portimão, Portugal.
The coastal stretch features golden sand bordered by ochre cliffs, with clear waters meeting a dense pine grove atop the surrounding bluffs.
The beach received its name from the first residential construction in the area, built by a German family during the early development of Portimão's coastline.
Local fishermen frequently launch their boats from this beach, maintaining traditional fishing practices that have sustained the Portimão community for generations.
The beach provides essential facilities including lifeguard services, restrooms, first-aid stations, and designated parking areas accessible through marked pathways.
A natural stone formation at the western end creates small lagoons during low tide, while the Varandas sobre o Mar trail extends along the clifftops.
