6. Perched atop the craggy, ochre-colored limestone cliffs of the Algarve, the Farol de Alfanzina (Alfanzina Lighthouse) serves as a sentinel over the Atlantic and a highlight of the Seven Hanging Valleys Trail. Established in 1920, this square white tower with its striking red lantern has spent over a century guiding ships through one of the most treacherous stretches of the Portuguese coastline.

About Albufeira

Albufeira is a former fishing town on Portugal's Algarve coast, with whitewashed old streets, sandy coves below red cliffs and a long summer season.

Albufeira was a fishing town under Moorish rule, its name coming from the Arabic for a lagoon, and its old town still climbs a hill above the water in a tangle of whitewashed alleys and arches. A tunnel leads down to the Fishermen's Beach, where boats once landed their catch, and the clock tower and parish church stand in the centre.
