Where you’ll be

Budens, Faro, Portugal

Salema is a locality in the parish of Budens, in the municipality of Vila do Bispo, in the westernmost part of the Algarve. Salema is located at the base of a cliff around the beach of the same name and is part of the Natural Park of Southwest Alentejo and Algarve Coast.

The village of Salema is one of the few communities that has a small indigenous fishing fleet of traditional colorful boats, still launched from the beach (but now with the help of a tractor), which is thrown into the sea to catch bream, mackerel, sardines and octopus that can be savoured fresh grilled in local restaurants the same night.

The sandy beach is gently inclined, ideal for swimming and safe for children. There's a lifeguard service in the summer months. Seawater quality is excellent.

On either side of the beach there are yellow limestone rocks dating back about 150 million years. Above them are the latest red limestone rocks, contrasting beautifully with the blue sky. It is among these that you will find deeply entrenched remnants of shells and scales and even the footprints of dinosaurs.

There are a dozen bars / restaurants in Salema, a handful of gift shops and a few mini-markets. There's an ATM at the back of the oval building in the main square. The city of Lagos to the east and Sagres to the west are just 10 miles away. The west coast of the Algarve can be reached in about 15 minutes by car. There you can find sandy beaches that stretch over the cliffs for miles. If you want to do more than just lie on the beach there are golf, tennis courts, spas, horseback riding, boating and walking all within a few miles. From the cliffs of the beach there are also great launching points for paragliding.

About 300m below the waters of Salema beach you can also visit the French warship L'Ocean, sunk during the Seven Years' War.
