Praia do Padre Vicente

Praia do Padre Vicente extends along a small cove, bordered by tall limestone cliffs that frame the golden sand and clear Atlantic waters.

The beach derives its name from a local religious figure who regularly visited this section of the Portuguese coast during the 18th century.

Local fishing boats still anchor near the shore, maintaining the traditional maritime practices that have shaped this region for generations.

Access to the beach requires navigation through a steep staircase, and visitors should bring their own supplies as no facilities are available.

The beach remains accessible only by sea or through a single pathway, maintaining its status as one of the least frequented shores in Algarve.
