Located next to Portimão, Praia da Rocha is known for its stunning cliff-backed beach and long seaside promenade. The resort combines natural beauty with plenty of action, making it a great choice for those who want both relaxation and entertainment.
The resort has a broad appeal – from beach lovers and families to couples looking for romantic sea views and friends chasing sun and nightlife. The vibe is energetic but never overwhelming, making it a brilliant all-round destination.
Praia da Rocha literally translates to “Beach of the Rocks” – and it’s easy to see why. Towering cliffs frame a wide, soft sandy beach that stretches for nearly 2km. This is one of the largest and most accessible beaches in the Algarve:
The main beach is ideal for sunbathing, swimming, and paddleboarding. Plenty of beach bars and cafes line the shore.
A quieter beach just to the west, perfect for those seeking calm and scenic beauty.
A picturesque spot with natural rock formations, good for sunset views and exploring.

Great options like Jupiter Algarve Hotel and Hotel da Rocha offer meals, drinks, and comfort all in one.
Stay at budget-friendly places like Clube Praia da Rocha Apartments or Hotel Mirachoro Praia da Rocha.
Ideal for flexibility – Flor da Rocha and Oceano Atlantico Apartments are popular with Irish guests.
Enjoy 4-star comfort and sea views at Bela Vista Hotel & Spa or AP Oriental Beach Hotel.
