2023 is already ending and 2024 is knocking on our door. It is time to make plans and decide your next vacation dreamy destination. As always, Algarve is one of the most wished ones and Gabi Miguel is here to help you.
Do you already know the Galé Beach? Although the Golden Triangle is one of the most renowned destinations in the Algarve, Albufeira is the place to find the most beautiful beaches and Galé Beach highlights among all options.
See below the text written by Visit Portugal and have an idea of what is waiting for you.
Praia da Galé forms the eastern end of the wide sandy bay of Armação de Pêra and Albufeira. On this beach, the rock formations characteristic of the western Algarve emerge again from the sand, providing nooks and shelters for bathers, especially in the eastern section, with the western sector being more exposed. These warm-coloured carbonate rocks, very rich in marine fossils, also called shells, bear witness to a past time when sea levels were further inland. Currently, they are heavily sculpted by rainwater and polished by the sea, covered by plants adapted to salsuge, such as soybean. In areas where sand accumulates, mainly in the western sector, typical dune plants can still be seen, especially the estorno, the clove-of-the-sand and the aromatic perpetual-of-the-areas, in the continuity of the dune system of Salgados and from Praia Grande. To the east, rock formations dominate and an area of stone pine crowns the orange cliff.
