We went to Farol near the lighthouse with the ferry , which on the return took many more passengers than reason! Who counts the number of people? Worrying... About Farol beach in Culatra: it takes about 10 minutes to reach it, passing by very nice typical houses. The beach is not very big but it is guarded, there are toilets and a bar/restaurant nearby.

Beautiful Superb and amazing destination On arrival in culatra, follow the footbridge at the exit of the village that takes you across the island to arrive on the ocean side, then along the beach about 3 km to arrive on farol. Near deserted beach in its center, blue and turquoise sea.. Really beautiful roof as the 2 villages

2 Lovely meals one Cataplan & one pork. Nice visit for adults. The walk to the beach too long for us so turned back, we’re in our 60s. The small town was delightful. We went there three times, travelling on the very reasonably priced ferry. We usually go to Farol, visited there twice this year but not much going on. We saw people pouring off the ferry to this small town. So thought we’d give it a go, what a pleasant surprise. Plenty of restaurants & bars to visit.

Simply magnificent! The village of Culatra breathes the simplicity of a fishing village. From the small typical and modest houses, to those people, everything here struck me by its typical essence, which has not yet “worn” nor lost its glow by tourism. The beach is to lose breath!! Crystalline water where you do not think twice before entering (hot water, like nowhere else in Portugal!!). Infinite area to lose sight of, with space for everyone (greater crowd in the guarded part, bars and sun loungers). For some privacy I advise you to walk away from this area. However, they do not contain bars or other services. Take the garbage back in your own bag because you will have nowhere to deposit it (except in the guarded part). Couldn't have asked for a better beach day! Portugal has so much to offer! I loved! Repeat!
