Monte Clérigo
While many holidaymakers enjoy the classic white beaches of the Algarve`s southern coast, others prefer the unspoilt beauty of the West Coast and the wilder waves of the Atlantic which can be perfect for surfers. Monte Clerigo is one such west coast beach that offers much to those who take the time to seek it out. Although it may sound isolated, the Algarve is small enough that most major towns are never far away. Therefore Monte Clerigo is still close to many towns and Lagos is only 19 miles from this beach. Monte Clerigo can be more peaceful because it isn`t as directly accessible as other beaches in the region. You reach it by taking a gentle sloping road down from the cliff tops that gives some spectacular views of the beach and beyond. The beach has been granted Blue Flag status which is testament alone to its quality. The water is very clear so snorkelling is very popular here as is windsurfing and fishing. Although the beach is quieter, there are some restaurants and kiosks close by to serve those that have found it. Overall, Monte Clerigo is a peaceful, beautiful beach that is something of a well kept secret. (courtesy ilovealgarve.net)
