The length of the south-facing coastline is approx. 155 kilometres and stretches about 52 kilometres to the north on the west. At the widest point to the north, it is approximately 36 kilometres deep. Communication is mainly by road but there is single-track railway line running from Lagos to Vila Real do Santo António that also links to the line running to Lisbon and further north.

The beautiful blue flag beaches along this coast offer you kms of unspoilt beach to explore and enjoy by car, by foot or by boat. Most beaches offer sunbed and shade facilities and a few also offer a child play area where there is use of toys and games.

The old "EN125" main road runs along the whole coast and has now been greatly replaced by the new almost parallel motorway "A22" (also known as the Via do Infante). Starting at the border of Spain and stretching west to Lagos. Close to Albufeira it joins with the main motorway to Lisbon.

This motorway will take the visitor from the Spanish border at Vila Real de Santo António in the east to the historic town of Lagos in the west in a little over one hour of driving, thus now making the whole Algarve very easily accessible when you rent Quinta do Lago Villas. There is one international airport located close to Faro and this conveniently lies in the middle of the Algarve coastline. Sevilla is only 3 hours by car should you wish to travel further a field from the Algarve, offering stunning city dining and shopping for all.

There are about 100 sandy attractive beaches washed by the Atlantic Ocean and due to the maritime shelf and water currents the sea temperature can often be surprisingly warm even in some of the winter months. Located on the tip of Europe with the vast Atlantic Ocean as its southern and western border, this enviable position gives this region possibly the most unpolluted climate in the European continent.
