Create an itinerary including Praia da Marinha
Bring your snorkeling gear for an underwater adventure at Praia da Marinha, noted for its calm waters and rocky outcrops. The clear waters lapping this beach offer you a chance to explore a diverse marine environment populated by sea anemones, shrimp, and colorful fish. One of the most photographed spots in Portugal, the beach hugs orange-colored limestone cliffs that are largely responsible for keeping this stretch of the coastline free of big tourist crowds. Once you get tired of your secluded beach lair, head out to sea on a guided boat trip, or pack a picnic lunch and explore the nearby caves and rock pools. Make Praia da Marinha a centerpiece of your Caramujeira vacation itinerary, and find what else is worth visiting using our Caramujeira tour planner.

  • It is considered to be one of the most beautiful beach in Portugal. It is beautiful indeed, but Lagos has also beautiful spots. Nevertheless, the arch with two natural windows is stunning. The view of the beach from above and land is better than from the sea.
  • Simply stunning view. Very picturesque from any angle. The 1.5km hiking trail is worth it, but could get very hot in the afternoon. Wear hat and proper shoes
