While in Carvoeiro, you also can’t miss a walk along the cliffs to Algar Seco<\/strong>.<\/p>

Algar Seco<\/strong> is a group of fascinating rock formations. Erosion here has created rock pools<\/strong>, caves<\/strong> and windows and balconies<\/strong> over the sea. Algar Seco<\/strong> resembles a lunar landscape and is one of the Algarve’s major natural monuments. Here you will find limestone cliffs filled with fossils of marine life from 24 million years ago. A wooden boardwalk<\/strong> runs along the cliffs, which will take you to the right places. <\/p>

Be sure to enter the cave called \u201cA Boneca\u201d (\u201cThe Doll\u201d).<\/strong> It is said to have been given this name because it is located inside a peak that once resembled a doll. Inside the cave there are two openings – windows overlooking the ocean<\/strong>, which are a dawn for photos. <\/p>

Only a few people can be inside at a time. There are days when people line up outside, waiting their turn to go inside and take pictures. <\/p>

There is a restaurant next to the cave, where you can take a coffee break during the season. The restaurant is closed outside the tourist season. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
