The hidden, shallow inlet beach 50 steps behind Casa Armona is perfect for children, shell collecting, snorkeling, exploring the ever-changing sandbars and, of course, lounging and swimming. And the Atlantic Ocean, with its kilometers of open dunes and sandy beaches, is a 15 minute walk away.

Our beach cottage is a family retreat: a place to get away, build sand castles, read books, ride ferries, play board games, catch crabs. There is no PC, no internet. The ancient TV only receives eight fuzzy channels: four Portuguese, four Spanish. In a word: paradise.

Armona Island is reached by a 15-minute walk-on ferry from Olhão, the Algarve's largest fishing port and home to the best daily fish market in Portugal. (Olhão also has internet cafes.) Armona Island's main thoroughfare is a wide, paved sidewalk leading from the dock's little cluster of cafés, restaurants and private homes to the Atlantic Ocean beaches on the far side of the island. Casa Armona is just three minutes from the ferry dock, an easy distance to wheel your suitcases from the boat to the house.
