Carvalho Beach Trip Portugal, Part II - Cliff Jumping, Hiking and Swimming!!!

Part II to the previous post of our fantastic beach trip in Portugal to Carvalho Beach!!

As mentioned in the previous post, Carvalho is tucked away in one of those famous Algarve coastal coves near other spectacular beaches - Albandeira, Marinha, and Benagil.  Benagil has its famous sea caves (well worth the swim to see it!!), Marinha has its famous double arches and Albandeira has multiple beaches and an impressive eroded arch of its own - but Carvalho is no slouch in scenery either.

The tunnel carved into the side of the cliffs that leads down to the beach adds an awesome touch, especially after hiking around the cliffs above, as we do in this video.

The climb up to the cliff-jumping spots can make those with weaker stomach's tremble a bit, but what a thrill it is to take the leap of faith into that fantastic Algarve beach water!!

Plenty of jumping in the video linked below, and a great hike on the edges of the cliffs high above the beach and around the nearby coves.  I grabbed the swim board, too, and took a swim out to gaze at the beach from out in the water - what a great experience.

Enjoy the action !!!
