Porches

Porches lies along Portugal’s central Algarve coast, where low limestone terrain slopes from the inland settlement towards Atlantic coves and cliffs. Though small, it is closely associated with hand-painted pottery, a local craft still represented by workshops producing decorative bowls, tiles and tableware. The parish reaches the shoreline at Senhora da Rocha, a rocky headland with a chapel above the sea; nearby beaches sit beneath the pale cliffs typical of this stretch of coast. Between Armação de Pêra and Carvoeiro, Porches is a worthwhile stop when exploring Lagoa municipality beyond the larger resort centres.
