Albandeira Beach – the best in the Algarve?

by Nick RobinsonAll Stories, VideoPosted on One Comment

Albandeira Beach has a special place in my heart, maybe because it was the turning point every day for my stand up paddle tours. Maybe because it just is a stunning little gem of a beach with a massive natural rock arch, incredible cracks joining the two sections of beach, a natural jacuzzi and an island?

It’s the perfect spot and is slightly more difficult to get to than the easier Benagil or Marinha beaches, being a little more off the beaten track. If you’re paddling along the coast you will definitely not miss that massive natural rock arch. It will be a sad day when that plunges into the water.
