Praia dos Calvoeiros stands out for its natural composition. The golden, fine sand is bathed by waters that frequently exhibit a remarkable transparency. The cliffs that delimit it are a striking scenic element, displaying the warm colours of the Algarve rock and the low-lying vegetation adapted to the coastal climate.
