Perched dramatically on a cliffside in the heart of the Algarve, Senhora da Rocha is a quiet coastal gem with stunning views of the Atlantic. This small white chapel, set on a narrow promontory near Porches, offers a quiet spot surrounded by sea and sand.


Take a moment to soak in the panoramic views of waves crashing against golden cliffs. On either side of the headland lie two beautiful beaches, Praia da Senhora da Rocha and Praia Nova, perfect for a laid-back beach day or a refreshing swim.


Whether you’re stopping for the views, a moment of calm, or to explore one of the Algarve’s most photogenic corners, Senhora da Rocha makes for a lovely quick stop on your coastal road trip.
