Beach life: Get your dose of vitamin sea

Amidst the Coronavirus pandemic, many of us have been confined to our homes throughout the last twelve months with our only chance of escape coming in the form of a brisk walk in the fresh air. But imagine if that walk took you to a place you have dreamed about for so long, across a golden beach with paradise on the other side and a rare dose of vitamin sea…

Your regular walks back home may have taken in the uninspiring sights and sounds of busy roads and damp woodland in amongst a dark and gloomy setting, perfectly encapsulating the way the world has been filling as we got to grips with a 'new normal'. 

We guarantee that you would have traded that in for the sun-kissed life of luxury in the regions of Quinta Do Lago and Vale Do Lobo's infamous beaches.

With some light at the end of the tunnel and things starting to open up again, it won't be long before summer tourists descend to Portugal's most southerly coast from various different countries to bask in luxury surroundings once more. 

The first thing many of us will be looking forward to is dipping our toes in the warm sea and stretching our legs across the endless yellowy sands. The Mediterranean climate and atmosphere are sure to take your breath away - it will be like you have never been away.

Regardless of whether you're a returning holiday-maker to the Golden Triangle looking to make up for lost time or someone who has never visited here before, our beaches are renowned for being some of the best in the world.

Let's take a brief look at some of the beaches you could be visiting within our luxury regions this summer.

Praia de Vale do Lobo: Vale do Lobo boasts two kilometres of enchanting golden beach and with its classic cliffs offering the perfect backdrop to your first holiday of 2021, you will feel that heaven is in fact a place on earth. Find a quiet spot, kick back and relax - if it all gets a bit much, jump into the Atlantic waters to cool down and try your hand at some watersports.

Praia da Marinha: If you are willing to travel a little further, you might want to consider visiting Praia da Marinha, a beach which lies on the other side of Albufeira, closer to the west and easily accessible by car from Quinta do Lago. Praia da Marinha is one of the most popular beaches in the Algarve and has been voted as one of the most beautiful in the world. You can access the remote location of Praia da Marinha via its cliffside steps with access to clear water and caves that are just waiting to be discovered - natural beauty abounds.

Praia de Vilamoura: The Praia de Vilamoura beach is located between the Vilamoura marina and the fishing port of Quarteira. This is the most popular beach of the region. as it is the closest beach to many of the major hotels, which also means it can get very busy during the summer months. If you enjoy surfing or bodyboarding, you will enjoy the white waves of Vilamoura, but equally there are no strong currents so it's safe for children to splash around.

Soon you will be able to adopt the carefree attitude with the sun on your skin and the sand in between your toes - you might even be able to achieve a nice glowing tan if you remember what one of those actually is…

Nonetheless, there's a reason why those who have been before simply return at any given opportunity. To make the dream become a reality later this summer, make sure you browse our selection of stunning properties via the website.
