Praia do Pinhão
Lagos, Portugal, Portugal
Praia do Pinhão is a small, picturesque beach tucked into a sheltered cove just west of Lagos town in the Algarve, framed by dramatic orange cliffs and rocky outcrops that give it a very scenic, intimate feel.
It has clear, calm waters and a relatively narrow strip of sand, making it popular for swimming, snorkeling, and cliff‑top photography, yet it stays quieter than the more crowded central Lagos beaches. The beach is divided into two tiny sections linked by a low rock or tunnel, and can be reached either by a steep stone staircase from above or by walking along.
The sand from nearby Praia dos Estudantes at low tide, with few facilities so it suits visitors who prefer a natural, relaxed seaside atmosphere over resort‑style amenities.
