Praia da Oura

The beach is reached via a hill from the bottom of 'The Strip'. The area extends eastwards along the coast with a wide range of places to stay. Hotels, villas and huge apartment blocks dominate this area, however, the large excellent beach can handle the number of visitors.

For the adventurous and keen walker it is possible, if one times the tides correctly, to walk from Praia da Oura to Albufeira in one direction (west) and in the other, it is supposed to be possible to walk to Quarteira (a long way east). As for the walk to Albufeira, the part between Praia da Oura and Praia Dos Aveiros requires a good head for heights as part of it is along a path worn into the cliff face.

The beach has a wide range of water sports available including, para-ascending (30 Euro - 2002), yellow banana rides, tractor tyre rides and jet skis. The next cove along has Scuba Diving for the more adventurous

There are a wide range of restuarants from traditional through to Chinese.
