Corredoura Beach is located on the coast of the municipality of Lagoa, in the Benagil area. It is situated in a small natural cove, completely sheltered by the high cliffs that surround it.
Its position on the Algarve coastline gives it a striking natural setting, characterized by the typical rock formations of this region.
Corredoura Beach stands out as a place of great tranquility. Its medium-sized sandy area often remains uncrowded, even during peak tourist season.
This characteristic is due to the fact that access to the beach is made exclusively by sea. There is no pedestrian or land path that leads directly to the sand, which contributes to its reserved and serene nature.
Corredoura's sandy area is composed of golden sand. The waters that bathe this cove are known for their clarity and calmness, making them inviting for a swim or for observing marine life.
The imposing limestone cliffs that frame the beach shelter small caves at their extremities. These natural cavities can be explored from the water, revealing interesting rock formations.
Visiting Corredoura Beach offers the opportunity to enjoy an environment of peace and quiet, far from the busiest beaches. It is an ideal place to simply relax in the sun, listen to the sound of the waves, and appreciate the surrounding landscape.
The clear waters are suitable for swimming and snorkeling. For those arriving by sea, exploring the nearby caves is an interesting way to discover the details of the coastline and its unique geological formations.
