Beautiful Beaches Other than the golf courses, you would probably want to spend a considerable amount of time at the beach. Fishermans beach is rather crowded, but you may just find some space away from the volleyball court that seems to attract all the attention. You may opt for West beach which is a little less crowded. The marina beach is another option with a whole lot of different possibilities, such as snorkelling and swimming among the various coves and rock formations. If youd prefer to be far from the madding crowd, head straight for Carvoeiro beach with its silent stretches and sentinel-like cliffs making sure you are not disturbed.
