    Tips

    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.

      Lonely, beautiful stand, access through the dunes, there is a nice restaurant by the fortress. Open throughout the year.
