Praia do Porto de Mós

The one-kilometer stretch of golden sand extends between tall limestone cliffs, featuring deep blue-green waters of the Atlantic Ocean along the Algarve coast.

The beach area has served as a natural harbor since ancient times, with its protected position making it a strategic point for maritime activities.

Local fishermen maintain their traditional practices at Porto de Mós, launching small boats from the beach to catch fish using methods passed through generations.

The beach provides modern facilities including showers, restrooms, restaurants, parking areas, and seasonal lifeguard services from June through September.

During low tide, visitors can discover small tidal pools among the rocks, revealing a variety of marine creatures native to the Portuguese coast.
