Praia dos Pescadores, Central beach in Albufeira, Portugal

Praia dos Pescadores extends for 225 meters along the Albufeira coastline, featuring golden sand and clear waters bordered by white limestone cliffs.

The beach served as the main fishing hub of Albufeira until the construction of a new marina west of town moved fishing operations away.

The square adjacent to the beach hosts regular open-air concerts and entertainment events throughout the year, connecting visitors with local traditions.

Visitors can access the beach through multiple entry points, including an escalator system, pedestrian tunnels, and walkways from the old town.

During high tide, the water separates this beach from neighboring Praia do Peneco, creating a distinct coastal environment within the 2-kilometer sandy stretch.
