Praia dos Olhos de Água Beach
Olhos de Água used to be a small fishermen’s village and is famous for its natural springs. These natural springs look a bit like eyes and gave the beach its name. Praia dos Olhos de Água in English is sometimes called Eyes of water beach. When the tide is low, these freshwater springs can be found on the eastern side of the beach, among the rocks. The water is fresh, cold and can be drunk.
Behind the beach you can also see some colourful boats and fishermen huts. The fishing boats are still in use and you often see fishermen hanging out around here.
During low tide, go left and you can walk along Praia da Falésia all the way to Vilamoura. Walk to the right at low tide, it is also possible to walk to the right, in the direction of Praia da Oura.
