A steep walk to the top for Good views of the ocean, beach, albufeira old town and albuferia area from over a hundred feet with benches to sit and enjoy the views. At the top the hill there are a couple of small bars serving lunch and drinks, there is also a decent pizza restaurant open late during the summer. Also a small road train is available that stops at the top of the hill and runs along the main highway that is parallel with the beach. Price is reasonable and may be needed if walking trouble.

A good place to start any tour of Albufeira and the old town and to get your bearings. Situated high above the central square, it offers great uninterrupted views along the Algarve coast and to the town below. The Algarve Open top sightseeing bus, and the local sightseeing "train" both have stops at the viewpoint and it is also accessible by escalator from the square below.

Beautiful view outlooking the beach Praia dos Pescadores and the city. Very easy to get there as there are 2 escalators taking you up. There are some benches up there and shadow as part of the viewpoint has a roof. Nearby are some restaurants and this is also a stop for the tourist train. Good spot to take some pictures ans enjoy the view!

Great place for stunning views, beautiful sandy beach, tons of dining options, picturesque setting. The sunset is nearly as perfect as a Hawaiian Wakiki sunset. Albufeira, Portugal on the Southern coast is well worth the trip. Be sure to like the post, follow me here and on IG: @duecetravels for more great location and food reviews.

The hotel is located in a intimate bay. It has a private and cozy beach with a spectacular view on the Atlantic ocean. The coast around the hotel is unique, it has wonderfull sea sculted caves with breath taking colours. They can be visited on boat tours (when the weather allows it). - fees apply!
