Carvoeiro is a charming village located in the western Algarve, in the municipality of Lagoa, southern Portugal. With an approximate population of 2,700 inhabitants, Carvoeiro has become a well-known holiday destination, famous for its stunning beaches nestled between dramatic cliffs.
The village itself was built around Carvoeiro Beach, and its traditional houses with beautiful sea views are truly one of its highlights. The narrow streets, a legacy of its fishing village origins, reflect an architectural style adapted over time to the needs of its residents.
Carvoeiro’s lively center is made up of three main streets and a central square. One street leads directly to the square in front of the beach, another heads towards the city of Lagoa, and the third runs parallel to the coastline, where you’ll find most of the village’s popular restaurants and cafés.
Just 80 meters from Casa Castello, you’ll find the scenic walkways and trails that connect Algar Seco to the Nª Srª da Encarnação Fort. The installation of an elevated wooden walkway and safety railing makes it easy and comfortable to explore the coastline, while also protecting the local vegetation from foot traffic. The improvements include a solid wooden walkway along the cliffs, clear trail signage, and a restored staircase providing access to Algar Seco.
These enhancements make it easy for visitors to enjoy Carvoeiro’s breathtaking coastal scenery, whether you’re out for a leisurely stroll or looking for the perfect spot to take in the sunset.
