Barranquinho Beach is a small, secluded beach located near Albufeira. The beach is known for its soft sand and rocky sea, which may require visitors to wear sea shoes for comfort. However, the beach's natural beauty is somewhat marred by occasional seaweed accumulation on the rocks, making it difficult to reach the water.
The beach is accessible by both car and boat, although the road conditions can sometimes be challenging due to rockfalls. Visitors arriving by car should be aware that the parking area, located near Estr. de Albandeira, has been reported to have issues with break-ins, so it is advised not to leave any valuable belongings in the car.
Despite these challenges, the beach is not typically crowded, offering a peaceful retreat for those willing to venture off the beaten track.
