praia ohlos de água seemingly gets extremely busy especially during the summer as it has the features an algaeve beach is notorious for: warm crystal clear waters, soft glowing golden-white sand, and the absolutely stunning backdrop of sandstone cliffs blocking out the rest of the world. However, many people using this beach come down from the square in ohlos de águas centre, and set up their gear at the first blank space they can find on this gorgeous beach, making it seem astonishingly crowded for a beach in such a small beautiful town, so if you are headed for a getaway during these summer months i would highly recommend either going down earlier in the day or later in the evening to secure a prime spot, or simply walking right when you get on the beach, past the rock formations as you will usually find that barely anybody sets their stuff up there because it is more secluded and not as visible as the main part of the beach. There are plenty of shops, bars, and restaurants, as well as showers and toilet facilities within walking business of the beach, so anything you could ever possibly need is easily accessible, and there is more than enough to keep all the family entertained if not everyone is a fan of the beach (although i dont see how that could be possible here as it is so dazzlingly picturesque)
