Vale de Lama Oyster Farm, Ria de Alvor

Highlight • Structure

The oyster farm looks like a wholesale oyster farm. But, we saw a worker and found out they sell oysters directly to the customer. 5€ for a kilo. We bought 2 kilos (34 oysters) for 10€. Compared to 3€ per oyster this was an amazing deal. We took them home and opened them and put lemon and cocktail sauce on them. Delicious!

Praia da Rocha

Highlight • Beach

The Praia da Rocha (rocky beach) is one of the most famous beaches in the Algarve. The coast changes due to erosion as rocks break off again and again.

September 4, 2023,Von Lagos nach Portimão 🇵🇹

This tour initially went for a long time along a busy street. At one point we were able to see a lot of storks. Only from Alvor did we go close to the coast with many great viewpoints.

October 14, 2023,Von Lagos nach Portimão

At the beginning of today there was a very nice route with the opportunity to cool off your feet in the water. Then unfortunately a relatively long section along the country road. Luckily there is a wide strip especially for cyclists. The highlight of this section is a large collection of storks. As we continue, there are great views, first …

October 21, 2022,Lagos - Portimao Vogelbeobachtung (bis der Akku leer war)

A great bird watching tour. In the areas used for agriculture I have also seen several hoopoes, kingfishers and many other small birds (many larks), there are goats, donkeys and pigs. Somewhat disturb the dumps, especially with rubble. Some fences have led me to detours, but others are simply over there.

October 5, 2022,05 Algarve - Lissabon Portimao - Luz

Today we went from Portimão's hotel castles to the retort city of Burgau. First we went to the still very original fishing village of Alvor. A cyclist could also go on holiday here. Since there is no bridge connecting the two headlands between Alvor and Lagos, you have to drive around the swamp area, which turns out to be dull …
