Monte Gordo beach is an immensely long wide curve of golden sand on a broad bay with small pine woods, plenty of dunes and several beach bars. Monte Gordo beach is considered one of the best in the Algarve and is a favourite with families. For a smaller more secluded beach try Cacela Velha beach or Praia Verde. Monte Gordo holiday nightlife centres on the long beach promenade with its seafront restaurants and pavement terraces. Monte Gordo still has a working fishing harbour, ensuring plenty of locally-caught fish and seafood on the menu. There are plenty of bars and at least one disco for a big night out. Monte Gordo holidays are not complete without a visit to its modern stylish casino with its  ballroom and  live shows.
