Located in Albufeira, this stretch of coastline is well worth a look. But you'll find lots more to discover in the area. Zoomarine, Senhora da Rocha Beach, and Albufeira Old Town Square aren't too far from Arrifes Beach.

Great Location for the beach & walk into town friendly staff. The breakfast was average & didn’t have fresh milk. They didn’t have a menu for the main restaurant at reception?! But saying these things would stay again for the location.
