If all you seek from a holiday is sun, sand and a sensational tan then look no further than the glorious golden seaside village of Armacao de Pera.
This quiet and unassuming location, once a fishing village, boasts one of the longest uninterrupted stretches of sand in the entire Algarve and is perfect for sunworshippers who seek pure relaxation and bronzed perfection. You will not be disappointed. Hide away in the pretty coves and bays which are scattered along this stretch of coastline.
The water is calm and the beaches although popular are so wide and long you will always find a perfect spot.
The village was once a thriving harbour where fishermen spilled their catches of tuna onto Fishermen's Beach from special wide nets called Armacao. At the time, the village's neighbour, was a tiny village called Pera, and the two became one. Today you can dine on the freshest fish caught in the very waters which surround the village. A fine selection of restaurants boasting the day's biggest catch can be found in the Fishermen's Beach area. Mouthwatering Portuguese dishes of all types fill the menus of these wonderful harbour side eateries - you'll be spoilt for choice.
