Praia de Porto de Mós, Sandy beach in Lagos, Portugal

The Porto de Mós beach stretches for over one kilometer along the Atlantic Ocean, featuring golden sand bordered by tall limestone cliffs.

The strategic position of Porto de Mós beach made it an observation point for Portuguese maritime forces monitoring coastal activities during the Age of Discovery.

Local residents maintain a tradition of building stone structures resembling small pyramids along the shoreline during summer months.

Two beachfront restaurants, lifeguard services during summer, and ample parking facilities make this beach accessible for extended day visits.

During low tide, visitors can walk to the adjacent Praia do Canavial beach through a natural passage between the cliffs.
