Praia dos Três Irmãos, Sand beach in Alvor, Portugal
Praia dos Três Irmãos stretches along the eastern end of Alvor beach, featuring remarkable limestone formations and multiple protected coves with golden sand.
The beach received its name from three distinct sea stacks that Portuguese sailors in past centuries used as navigation markers along the Algarve coast.
Local fishermen continue their traditional practices near the beach, bringing fresh catches directly to the beachfront restaurants that prepare regional seafood specialties.
The beach maintains seasonal lifeguard services from June to September and provides wheelchair access, restrooms, sun loungers, and parking facilities nearby.
Between the main rock formations, several natural tunnels and caves emerge during low tide, creating temporary pools suitable for exploring marine life.
