Fort Santo Alberto on the island of Pessegueiro and the Fort of Nossa Senhora da Queimada near Pessegueiro Beach are defenses that were built to protect this coast from piracy. Construction of these two fortresses began in the Philippine period around 1588 but did not end until 1690 after the restoration of Portuguese independence.
The 1755 earthquake caused significant damage to this group of fortresses, and although classified as national monuments, they are being abandoned.
The fort has no opening times to the public.
There are fantastic sunsets.

Vandring

Pessegueiro Island Beach is located opposite the island that gives it its name, where there are traces of a very ancient occupation, such as the fish salting factory from Roman times, which is thought to be the origin of its name, derived from the Latin "piscatorius".

During the summer, several boats offer tours of the island, crossing the channel that was used as a safe haven by the Romans and Carthaginians and which today offers excellent conditions for water sports such as windsurfing, canoeing and diving.
