Praia Grande de Pêra

Praia Grande de Pêra beach is roughly a 20-minute, scenic walk from Armação de Pêra on Portugal's Algarve coast. It is a beautiful, long sandy beach, and many parts of it are nudist and gay-friendly. So during the warmer months, you'll likely meet many LGBTQ+ beachgoers who have come to enjoy the sun, sand, and maybe even some cruising. Behind the beach, there are sand dunes and some vegetation, which is generally the area where you'll most likely find some gay cruising. Both the dunes and vegetation are relatively low, so be prepared to be reasonably exposed. 

Access to Praia Grande gay beach is super easy, and if you don't won't to walk from the town of Armação de Pêra, you can drive. There is a large carpark behind the beach, and you simply need to follow the wooden path down to the sand. 

We would like to thank misterb&b member, Ricardo, for sharing this great gay beach suggestion with us.
