This village offers one of the most beautiful postcards to visit the Algarve. A hillside full of typical houses, a stone wall that divides the land, from the sea that enters by a river to almost the door of the inhabitants, and the wooden boats anchored almost randomly to complete the landscape.
At the bottom of the landscape is the city of Portimão and you can see the masts of sailboats resting in the colorful Marina.
This village was born in the 19th century. XIV, telling a story of poor fishermen looking for food for their families at the mouth of the River Arade, site of fish abundance.
The name Ferragudo appeared due to an iron ingenuity placed on the beach that served to hoist the fish, and the heavy goods of the boats to land.

Praia Grande and Praia da Angrinha (37.121883, -8.523201)
In the background are the same stretch of sand divided by the Castle of São João do Arade, which was built in that area exactly to watch the two beaches.
They are situated in the middle of the Arade River, overlooking the large wets that slow the strength of the sea in that area.
Sitting on the sand we can see the Marina of Portimão on the other side of the bank.
This beach has a wooden walkway along most of the sand, which allows access for everyone, including strollers or people with reduced mobility.
In the Angrinha area, the beach is smaller looking more like a river beach with the fishing houses behind.
There is a parking area, restaurants, toilet and recreational supports.
In the Area of Praia Grande there is surveillance of lifeguards in the bathing season: 01 Jun to 30 September.
Praia do Molhe (37.110060, -8.519150)
It is a small beach that is next to the spring jetty of the Arade River. Access is made by a steep staircase carved into the cliff.
These rocks of warm colors, are in continuous natural wear and it is possible to observe blocks fallen into the sand, as a consequence of landslides.
On the surface of the rocks there is vegetation that makes a pleasant contrast of color.
The waters are very calm due to the proximity of the jetty on the river side. On the sea side there are often waves and surfers in the water.
There's usually no lifeguard.
Pintadinho Beach (37.107796, -8.518831)
It is the beginning of the sea beaches of the municipality of Lagoa. Here we leave the river area and quiet of the wetties towards Ponta do Altar, a narrow and long point where there is a lighthouse.
On this beach the vegetation reaches the sand, being the beach framed in a patch of vegetation: palm trees, thyme, sargassum,
etc.When looking at the rocks you will clearly see the different colors, which result from marine erosion in these limestones. It's very nice!
On the cliff north of the beach there are 2 arches and caves where you can stroll and take pictures. The kids are going to love it.
The beach has restaurant, toilet and surveillance in the summer season.
Praia do Torrado (37.105824, -8.515527)
It is a small sandy beach at the source of the Ponta do Altar Lighthouse. It is a place of extreme natural beauty, little frequented.
On the horizon line are two rocks in the middle of the sea, called leixões. A smaller one by the sand and another further down: the Leixão da Gaivotas, because seabirds are the only inhabitants. You can see cormorants, herons and seagulls. Access to the beach is by boat or on foot through the beach of Caneiros, only when the tide is low.
Praia dos Caneiros (37.105030, -8.513719)
Overlooking the Lighthouse and Leixão das Gaivotas, this beach has much more sand and access by car.
The beauty of this beach lies in the setting of the rocks and the many caves to explore on foot. In an area of ancient landslides the rocks are scattered to the water, leaving small fish and molluscs in the puddles when the tide comes down.
The beach has restaurant, toilet and surveillance in the summer season.
There are also other small beaches such as Afurada or Mato beach, which you can explore during your stay in Ferragudo.
