Praia da Marinha is a beach in the Algarve, the southernmost Portuguese province. It belongs to the administrative area of Lagoa and is located in the so-called "Rock Algarve". Many holidaymakers from the nearby resort of Carvoeiro, about 5 km away, use the beach for swimming, diving and snorkeling. There is a free car park here (but you should get there early!). It is the starting point for the coastal hike to Benagil.

Great vantage point. In addition to the great view, there are large parking lots and refreshment stands.
