Picture postcard views from the hills of Carvoeiro
Carvoeiro was once a fishing village along this part of the Algarve coast. The dramatic red cliffs on either side of the town and the hills behind it make Carvoeiro a relatively remote spot compared to some of its neighbours. Carvoeiro is beautiful, especially when viewed from the hills on either side of the town. It is layered with white-washed villas and buildings, which seem to be in harmony with the natural surroundings.
The area has long been considered an excellent area for tourist and property buyers alike to acquire property due to the variety and pleasure provided by its many small beaches. The beach is surrounded by seaside cafes and restaurants and it is still home to local fishermen whose boats complete the picture postcard scene.
