My Favourite Local Places

Places I love to spend time at and visit.
The restaurant and bar is set within the cliffs, right on the beach and serves fabulous food (the bar has great snacks and book at the restaurant for a wonderful meal)! They host many parties through the summer so you can dance on the beach until dawn! This place has a great beach so you can sunbathe and pop in for lunch and drinks! Access to Caniço is by an awesome lift, built into the cliff - one not to be missed!

This is a hidden gem in Alvor! The secret garden is definitely one of the top 3 spots in Alvor - the food is amazing and the live music on Wednesday can be anything from Fado to Jazz to Latin/World but is always fabulous!! They also have a DJ playing on various other nights….check out their social media (FB) page for more information!!

Ferragudo is a beautifully quaint little village, perfect for a peaceful stroll around! Why not visit the Sunday flea market (second Sunday of the month), have lunch in one of the lovely snack bars and then head over to Club Nau for their live music 🎶 The views here are fabulous - and the sunsets are not to be missed!

Visit the Cave of Benagil (Gruta de Benagil) by kayak!! This gigantic cave is sometimes referred to as the Benagil Cathedral because of the various arches it forms, which, viewed from the outside of the cave, give it the appearance of a cathedral.
