    Hiking

    The Anchor Cemetery is an impressive collection of over 200 rusty ship anchors on the beach of Praia do Barril, near Tavira, Algarve, Portugal. These anchors were once used in tuna fishing, thus serving as a reminder of the region's maritime past.

    Rarely have we found such a clean sandy beach as here on the Braia do Barril. Gorgeous!
