It takes about 2 hrs at a quickish pace without stops. The thought of a Superbock at Smilers keeps me going though!!

Start above Paraiso Beach and follow your nose towards the west, a great walk, finishing at Caneiros Beach for lunch or carry onto Pintadinho and then to Feragudo and walk back by road. If you can get to Albandiera Beach, the cliff walk back to CVO is amazing, via Marinha, Benagil, Carvalho, Clube A...

If you do go to S&S at Easter make sure it is a hot one, don't pre book or else it could be a miserable time. We have been on a breezy day and it can be very cold stood around. It isn't busy at that time so there isn't a problem getting in, we always decide on the day. Re it being cold in October it...

I'll never get a table at Rei das Praias now everybody knows!!! it is always advisable to book. We always have our last meal there before departing, with the sun going down over the beach. If your Jose Mourinho you get waiter service on the beach as well.

If we are late in and need a quick meal we go to O Teodosio at Guia, the choice is limited but if you like Piri-Piri you can't beat it. You also get served within 5 mins of walking through the door.
