About this experience

Here, the vibrant golden hues of the rocks come alive, and the serene turquoise waters gently embrace the uniquely balanced formations. It’s a place that stirs the soul, offering a stunning and unforgettable experience.

Stop 1
The cliffs of the Ponta da Piedade headland is one of the finest natural features of the Algarve. This dramatic limestone coastline is formed of sea pillars, fragile rock arches and hidden grottos, all of which have been chiselled-out by savage winter storms.
The Ponta da Piedade is a bleak and windswept headland, and the beauty of the region is only discovered on descending the cliffs, where the exposed cliffs reveal their golden colour, and the turquoise sea waters lap precariously balanced rock formations. The headland can only be described as stunning.

Praia da Dona Ana is truly one of the Algarve's most stunning beaches, offering a perfect retreat for your beach day. Nestled south of Lagos, this enchanting spot rests amidst the breathtaking limestone cliffs of the Ponta da Piedade peninsula. The natural beauty here is simply heartwarming; the cliffs, shaped by time, reveal layers of golden rock, while the gentle, turquoise waters invite you to relax and unwind. The soft, inviting sands beckon you to take a moment for yourself. In addition to the serene environment, you'll find all the amenities you need to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable day. It's a wonderful place to create cherished memories.
