Situated in the area surrounding the village of Alte, in the municipality of Loulé, this river beach is located on the banks of the Alte Stream (Ribeira de Alte). Its inland position in the Algarve, far from the coast, gives it a distinct natural environment. It is a space that integrates into the region's rural landscape, offering a point of reference in the area.
The central element of this location is the waters of the Alte Stream. Known for their clarity, they offer an opportunity to cool off in contact with nature. On hot days, the stream's waters invite a dip or simply an opportunity to enjoy the coolness by the bank. The tranquility of the waters makes the spot suitable for moments of relaxation in the bathing area.
Alte River Beach is set within a pleasant natural framework. The presence of surrounding vegetation and trees creates natural shaded areas, which are valuable for those seeking shelter from direct sunlight. The atmosphere is calm, marked by the sounds of nature, which contributes to a feeling of peace and serenity outdoors.
Beyond the aquatic area, the site offers land-based spaces that allow visitors to relax and enjoy the landscape. There are areas, including grassy spots, where it's possible to spread a towel, sit, or lie down. These spaces are inviting for a period of rest, for reading, or for quiet activities like a picnic, taking advantage of direct contact with the surrounding environment.
