About the Beach
What is Praia de Arrifes Beach?
It's an Oceanic Beach in the northern hemisphere bathed by the Atlantic Ocean, located on the coast of Portugal - Iberian Peninsula - in the municipality of Albufeira.
Praia de Arrifes Beach presents a short stretch of sand that divides into two during high tide. In the central area there are few caves on the cliff.
In the sea, three high dimension rocks aligned with the shore, gave the name Praia dos Três Penedos to this beach.
Car parking is an open dirt field at the top of the cliff.
The access goes by a stairway next to the beach bar.
