Spacious and comfortable 2 bedroom apartment in the center of Praia do Carvoeiro, a traditional and small fishing village surviving on the tuna catches but has, not surprisingly, become an incredibly popular resort with visitors and has developed to keep pace. There is also a big Intermarché on the Lagoa road on the outskirts of Carvoeiro for even more choice. The town beach, Praia do Carvoeiro
is a beautifully sheltered sandy bay and spreads out just in front of the square with cliffs protecting it on either side. There are bars and cafés ideally placed around the square to still enjoy the view when you leave the beach! Watersports like jetskis and pedaloes are available at the beach for those who like messing about on the water and there are a couple of diving schools based in Carvoeiro if you prefer to be under the water. The local fishermen also make use of their boats during the day to offer visitors the chance to take boat trips around the coastline and to see the caves. One thing you won't be short of in Carvoeiro is somewhere to eat and drink! There is a huge selection of bars, restaurants and cafés all within easy walking distance of the centre and with a wide choice of food. At a guess most visitors give up on the idea of self-catering when they see what's on offer! The town beach is quite small when it comes to accommodating the numbers of visitors in Carvoeiro during the summer, but there are also some other lovely beaches within easy reach of the town, such as Almansor,Praia da Marinha, Benagil and Praia de Vale de Centianes
Carvoeiro is also ideally situated for family fun days out. There are two water parks within easy reach - the closest being Slide and Splash at Lagoa and Aqualand just slightly further away at Alcantarilha. If water parks aren't for you then there is Zoomarine Sealife park at Guia and Krazy World at Algoz to choose from. For the shoppers amongst you then either Portimão to the west of Carvoeiro or Algarve Shopping mall at Guia (near Albufeira) to the east (both about 15 minutes away) offer plenty of chances to spend some money! Even the non-shoppers can enjoy Algarve Shopping - there are plenty of seats in the sunshine and lots of restaurants and cafés in the food hall! It's open until late in the evening, so no need to miss out on beach time either! Of course, there is absolutely no need to leave Carvoeiro at all as there is plenty to do and to see right on the doorstep - it really is a lovely spot and well deserves it's reputation as a top Algarve holiday destination.
