Armacao de Pera is one of the oldest established resorts in the Algarve.
The town has retained much of its original character, with a variety of brightly-painted fishing boats.
Armacao de Pera has plenty of high-quality fish restaurants and many bars.
Armacao de Pera is well known for its vast white sandy beaches which extends all the way down the coast to Gal‚.
The western end of the beach is its the most beautiful area.
Here wild rocks compose strange formations and become a sort of amusement park for kids.
Boat Trips are available from Armacao de Pera beach to Cabo Carvoeiro. This trip takes along the sandstone cliffs with 18 caves.
Of these caves Pintal, Mesquita and Ruazes are considered to be the most beautiful of the Algarve.
