Praia do Canal Nature Resort is immersed within the Southwest Alentejo and Vicentine Coast Nature Park. Covering over 100km, the nature reserve is the finest preserved stretch of European coastline, with various unique species of fauna and flora.

The landscape is marked by steep limestone cliffs that have been carved into a series of rugged headlands, featuring stunning beaches, which are highly popular amongst surfers, and are the finest in the country. There is a tremendous variety of beaches, including long stretches of sand and small beaches nestled between the cliffs and rocks. These remarkable geological features have created a variety of distinctive plant and bird habitats. A masterpiece of colour and texture.

During this long stay in the Algarve, and specifically in Aljezur, leaving cultural and historical marks that are still visible today. Such as the Castle and its Cistern, toponymy, or even legends and popular stories. Village of Medieval streets and alleys, houses that denote Arab influences, the immaculate white of the lime and the intense green of nature are the scenery that welcomes this village and that is exposed to those who visit.
