Meia Praia

The 4 mile long San Roque Beach is one of the most popular of the Portuguese Algarve. It's the largest beach in Lagos, although it's a bit on the outskirts of town (across the Alvor estuary). It's Blue Flag and is a blast: A large expanse of golden sand with deep blue clear waters. What I didn't like was the access: From the parking you have to cross the train tracks! (No level crossing or anything). The beach has an area of ​​dunes, protected by wooden walkways. You can practice all kinds of water sports, volleyball, etc. and hire sun loungers and parasols. Its name comes from an ancient chapel
