Directly in front of the Vale do Lobo resort is the long sandy beach. Stretching for just over a kilometre the beach is framed by the typical Algarve ochre-coloured cliffs. The beach here is backed by two of the coast's finest courses; the Royal Golf Course and the Ocean Golf Course.

The broad area of sand, immediately adjacent to the resort, is lined with well-kept beach umbrellas, sun loungers and a massage station. Here you will find the Praca, an area dedicated to fantastic restaurants, vibrant bars, and nightly entertainment.
