    The beach was quiet, thus being a perfect place to rest. The ocean breeze and the very fine sand under your feet detached you from all problems and induced a state of relaxation. It was a perfect start to the day where you could enjoy the sun and a good book. If you are looking for souvenirs for your loved ones, the beach can help you, being full of a multitude of shells.

    I really enjoyed time on this beach. Such a vast sand beach, amazing (but a little cold sea). You can walk on the cliffs which are connected to other beaches. There are some places where you can eat or drink on the coast. The beach is never overcrowded (maybe with seagulls). The entrance to the sea is covered by shells (there are lots of them). So this is the only minor drawback. And you can experience a breath taking sunset, if you stay long enough.

    One of the few beaches in Albufeira near the central part of the city. About 500 meters long, surrounded by small cliffs, in low season, perfect for relaxation. Clean water, soft sand and the city center nearby make it possible to visit it for a short time while exploring the area.

    It's mid November...the beech is quite. The sea is fresh...not advisable to do more than a paddle its strong waves would give most strong swimmers a battle. The beach is clean and the sun is soothing. Not many places open. Out of season it's quite. It's what we came for peace.

    Although it is not my favourite beach in the Algarve, is is a nice place to stay and enjoy the ocean. The beach bars are very good and the vibe is good even during the high season... It is a very good beach to walk from one extreme to the other and you can easily access the old town if you walk to Praia dos Pescadores... Enjoy!

    Praia dos Alemães is a beautiful beach located in Albufeira, Portugal. With its clear blue water, soft sand, and stunning cliffs, it's a great place to relax and soak up the sun. The beach is surrounded by several restaurants and bars, offering a wide range of food and drinks. Overall, a must-visit destination for beach lovers!

    Nice large beach with good sand. Lots of sunbeds with good prices. Unfortunately there are no beach bars, only restaurants - not really on the beach, you have to climb a hill to reach them, but they are pretty close (2-3 min).

    Nice beach near Albufeira. Not easy to park during summer.

  • 5/5 Marshy On The M. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing long sandy beach, plenty of sunbeds and some water activities available. There's also a few beach bars to cool yourself off and enjoy a refreshing drink throughout the day 🙌

    Beautiful and calm beach, with clean water and soft sand. It is safe, as there are lifeguards every 150m. It's great for a walk and a couple of photos. Has lots of space.

    My wife and I stayed at the nearby Auramar resort, it is a short walk from the complex to this portion of the beach. Absolutely stunning views, plentiful natural rock formations, plenty of beach for everyone, and a great place for the family. Just a slight warning though: some ladies take their tops off, but they are usually hiding away and it isn't as obvious. Plenty of shells to acquire, and even more photos to take. We went in November, and whilst the temperature outside was in the mid to high teens, the temperature of the water was very cold, we wouldn't recommend trying to swim in it at that time of year! Oh, and there is a local friendly black cat who demands five thousand pets per minute or else they get very vocal about their demands.

    In December Christmas week you can guarantee this beach is empty really not many people which was perfect 😍 no crowds, no sun beds taken up the entire beach it was really nice. Lovely walk to and from the old town and from where we were staying. One of the few beaches in Albufeira near the central part of the city. About 500 meters long, surrounded by small cliffs, in low season, perfect for relaxation. Clean water, soft sand and the city center nearby make it possible to visit it for a short time while exploring the area.

    Little cave on the left side of the beach. Great to take some photos from the cliff or from the beach when the waves hit the rocks. Sunset is also gorgeous.

    Amazing I don't know if it's always...but on the day in question there was a lot of wind, unfortunately. The beach itself is a marvel, little movement of people and very quiet, the children loved it...foreigners from different places and even some " topless"

    Perfect spot for a lazy day at the beach. All in one spot. Cliffs, sand, ocean, food, drinks, music, lifeguard, bathrooms and a nice walk at the beach possible. Why not to Albufeira!?

🫤 This place has the perfect location and ambience with a live DJ on certain days. Unfortunately, the service is terrible and the food/drinks are overpriced when compared to the quality of the products. Today we waited over 45 min just for a sandwich. The waiters take forever even to bring you a drink...

👍 We were put off at first being an Italian restaurant, but the food was really good. Packed full of seafood :) We had the bruschetta (tomato and goats cheese), then the seafood linguine and lobster ravioli, then the fero richer and pistachio gelato. All was delicious.
