A perfect Algarve summer spot! ☀️ Praia da Rocha Baixinha is exactly what you dream of for a beach day — soft golden sand, clear waters, and a lively summer vibe. Even in peak season, the atmosphere is relaxed and full of energy. Absolutely one of the must-visit beaches in the Algarve!

Amazing place long sandy beach and another side are red and yellow rocks. It's around 12km for walking along the beach. Good for hiking and walkable on the top of the rocks and by the ocean. Amazing views.
