Explore Praia da Rocha

•WHY PRAIA DA ROCHA?•

Beautiful rock formations and sandy beaches

Praia da Rocha has a grand main beach and right next to it you will find smaller beaches like Praia dos Tres Castelos, Praia da Marina de Portimão and Praia dos Careanos. Praia da Rocha also provides cafès, restaurants, corner stores and ice cream parlours. Not to mention hairdressers, massage studios and other "essential" services.

At the mouth of Arade River stands Fort of Santa Catarina, proudly facing Atlantic Ocean and welcoming sailors of all kinds of vessels to Portimão.
