Porches have some of the nicest spots in the Algarve and great things to do. The town is a heaven for pottery lovers, has one of the most picturesque chapels and its very own craft beer - how cool is that!
Things to do in Porches
Porches Pottery
Porches Pottery is Algarve's pottery paradise. Founded back in 1968 as a way to preserve the art of hand-painting pottery. Come here to discover a great variety of beautiful and unique ceramic pieces.
Chapel of Nossa Senhora da Rocha
The chapel of Nossa Senhora da Rocha is well worth a visit for its enchanting location. The fort is set on top of stunning cliffs overlooking the impressive Atlantic ocean and the gorgeous beaches, Praia Nova and Senhora da Rocha.
Praia Nova
Along the coastline of Porches there are several nice beaches, my favorite spot is Praia Nova. A lesser-known beach with fewer crowds, set by beautiful cliffs with a view on the chapel of Nossa Senhora da Rocha.
Food and drink spots
Charming cafe with a beautiful outdoor terrace serving light lunch and Portuguese treats: Bar Bacchus
Hotel resort with a typical Bavarian beer garden, serving Porches very own craft: Vila Vita Parc
