Small beach in Algarve Portugal, Praia do Evaristo Beach is unlike all the others. Not a long sandy beach, no high cliffs just plenty of low rock formations creating a labyrinth on the beach. And at high tide, the waves come crashing into it. I think this is the best beach for meditation in the Algarve.

Praia do Evarito Beach
Praia do Evaristo in a small beach but it still has all the facilities.
Because there are no high cliffs, there are far fewer steps to reach the sand.
The beach is actually famous because of its restaurant which attracts fish and seafood lovers.
The beach has golden sand and low ochre cliffs.
Evaristo Beach Algarve Portugal
The particularity of the beach and its suroundings are the labyrinth of rocks on the ground.
It is great for kids and adults alike to explore all those pools and rock formations.
And thanks to the fact it is further away from Albufeira and a little isolated, it has a lot of charm.
On my photos, the sky was dark so it looks dark. But below is a photo from another photographer to show you what it looks like on a sunny day.

Waves crashing at Praia do Evaristo Algarve
I think the best part is to walk the the side of the beach at high tide to admire the waves crashing on those rocks.
It is a mesmerizing spectacle. I could have stayed there for hours!!!
Below is a serie of photos of the crashing waves.
