Algar Seco

About

Algar Seco is a striking natural attraction on the western Algarve coast, just east of Carvoeiro, famed for its dramatic limestone cliffs and the relentless wave erosion that carves its dramatic coastline. The site features a series of grottoes, islands, and water spouts where the Atlantic sculpted a dynamic network of sea caves that continue to evolve even today. Visitors can walk along cliff‑top trails that provide panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean, the neighboring beaches, and the surrounding cliffs, making the area a popular destination for nature lovers, photographers, and families seeking a scenic escape.
