Armacao de Pera in 1987. As you can see, the village was still under construction at that time.

Nossa Senhora da Rocha is a beautiful small church sitting on top of a cliff which protrudes toward the sea. It is located close to Armacao de Pera.

Right below the cliff, there was a fantastic beach (photo from 1987). I do not know whether the area has changed, but I guess so.

Albufeira has always been a charming busy village for tourists, even back in 1987.

This tourist shop carries typical goods from Algarve. I am sure that you will find something beautiful for your home.

In 1987 we took our old, sturdy Mercedes Benz 200D/8 and drove from Kiel to Algarve. Here we are already in central Portugal.

While we were at the Nossa Senhora da Rocha beach, all of a sudden a (former) fisherman came along, offering guided tours to the caves. It is really worth it, even if you look somewhat funny in the boat. :-)

The Olhao Fruit Market is a busy place. You will be able to get the best fish you can imagine!

Praia da Carriagem on a clear sunny day. One of the wonderful beaches close to Aljezur in the west of Algarve.
