To discover in Portugal:

Explore the Benagil caves

From Club Med Da Balaia, a 50-minute drive takes you to one of southern Portugal's treasures: the Benagil sea caves. Shaped by centuries and waves, these natural cavities offer a breathtaking spectacle, with golden walls, turquoise reflections, and dancing shadows.

The most celebrated, known as the cathedral, unveils a magnificent shaft of light streaming through its dome. Reachable by kayak, paddleboard, or aboard a boat tour, it's an ideal escape to enrich your Algarve adventure. A sensory voyage, between sea and stone, that leaves you spellbound.

Discover Ponta da Piedade

Head west, roughly an hour from Club Med Da Balaia, to discover one of Portugal's most captivating coastal landscapes: Ponta da Piedade. Here, golden cliffs, sculpted caves, and natural arches form a breathtaking scene worth savouring.

From above, a staircase reveals hidden coves; from below, let yourself drift through rock formations bathed in shifting light. Whether you seek peaceful moments or gentle exploration, this southern escape promises a striking visual experience steps from the ocean.

Admire Silves Castle

About an hour's drive from Club Med Da Balaia, step into Portugal's past in Silves, the former Moorish capital of the Algarve. Its red sandstone castle overlooks the town and valley, revealing a breathtaking panorama of rolling hills and orange groves.

Wander along the sun-warmed ramparts, discover the ancient cisterns, and let yourself be carried away by the medieval atmosphere that still lingers here. This historic landmark is an idyllic stop for travellers who love to blend culture and landscape during their Portuguese escape. A journey through memories, red stones, and the warm soul of the south.

Wander through the streets of Ferragudo

Your journey immerses you in authentic Portugal with the village of Ferragudo, less than an hour from Club Med Da Balaia. This charming fishing port with postcard-perfect appeal reveals a labyrinth of flower-filled streets, whitewashed houses with colourful shutters, and sun-drenched squares.

Here, savour a peaceful atmosphere, accompanied by the gentle lapping of water and fishing boats returning to port. The nearby beaches, more secluded than those of major resorts, invite relaxation. Ferragudo is one of those authentic places that inspires you to travel for the joy of simple and genuine pleasures.
