Praia da Longueira-Almograve is one of the longest and most deserted beaches on the Alentejo coast, with light sand and well-preserved dunes within the Southwest Alentejo and Vicentine Coast Natural Park. Rocky platforms that emerge from the sand create landscapes of great geological beauty, especially at low tide. The near-total solitude found here is increasingly rare in Portugal.
Zambujeira do Mar is one of the hidden gems of the Alentejo coast — a small beach set between tall black and green cliffs, reached by a pedestrian path between the village and the sand. The famous NOS Alive music festival takes place nearby, but for the rest of the year the beach keeps an almost absolute calm. Its intensely blue water and the dramatic cliffs make it one of the most photographed places in Portugal.
