Portimão marinas
Portimão is a town at the mouth of the Arade, with a fishing heritage, a riverfront and the broad Praia da Rocha beach.
Portimão
Portimão combines the life of a fishing town with an Algarve beach holiday. Time here can be spent by the sea, along the riverfront and discovering local fish dishes. The broad Praia da Rocha beach beneath the cliffs is one of the main reasons to linger.
The marina is beside the beach, while the old centre lies farther upriver. The town museum, housed in a former canning factory, shows how fishing and fish processing shaped life in Portimão.
