The beach in Algarve is truly magnificent, with its stunning scenery and crystal-clear waters. However, if you're looking for the ultimate beach experience, Marinha Beach is definitely worth checking out. With its picturesque cliffs and secluded coves, it's the perfect spot to relax and soak up the sun.
