Algarve beaches get high rankings from travelers
This is something well-known by those who are in the know, but it’s always good to know that Algarve beaches are continually appreciated by those who visit them.
The online travel site TripAdvisor – one of the most visited travel websites – has rated the Falesia beach in Albufeira as being the best beach in Portugal and the 18th in a top 25 of European beaches.
Another Algarve beach that has been awarded as being the 22nd in the top 25 is the Ponta da Piedare in Lagos, whilst Cascais beach in Lisbon is the second best Portuguese beach and 21st on the European list.
When it comes to the Top 10 Portugal Beaches, as expected the Algarve beaches occupy most of the positions, with the Falesia in Albufeira taking the top spot – as we mentioned earlier, Olhos d’Agua being ranked fourth and five other following them, all of which are to be found in the Western Algarve. They are as follows:
Ponta da Piedade in Lagos
