Zambujeira do Mar는 극적인 절벽 꼭대기에 솟아 있으며, 대서양이 항상 수평선에 펼쳐져 있고 숨겨진 해변이 아래에 있습니다. 작고 진정한 매력이 있는 이 마을은 특히 8월 Festival do Sudoeste 기간 동안 여름에 활기가 넘칩니다. 높은 곳에 있는 Capela de Nossa Senhora do Mar는 해안 최고의 전망대 중 하나를 제공하며, 전망을 감상하며 휴식을 취하기에 완벽합니다. 바다로 내려가는 길과 절벽 옆 오솔길 사이에서 이곳은 1km마다 자유를 느낄 수 있는 곳입니다.

At the top of the Monchique mountain range rises Foia, the highest point in the Algarve, at 902 meters altitude. Its antennas mark the summit where the sky seems closest and, on clear days, the view reaches the Atlantic. Up here, the wind blows freely and the view is simply unforgettable.

The summit is worth it - unfortunately, the biker on the pedestal is no longer there.

There was a bit of a chilly wind at the summit!! (50-60km/h) Plan your clothes accordingly. A bronze statue in honor of the Belgian professional cyclist, Evenepoel, winner of the last Tour of the Algavre 2022, should soon be enthroned again at the summit!!! Attention "selfie" lovers! 😉
