Great route with superb scenery and variety of terrain. There are lots of paths and tracks some rideable others not so it was good to have the gpx map to follow, but worthwhile making a few diversions to take in the scenery. Marinha and Albadiera are rated amongst the worlds top beaches.

Mostly unpaved roads and tracks. Very quiet, hardly any cars around. Technically easy route, some stamina or experience with cycling is recommended.
In the spring time, you can enjoy lots of blooming flowers, and smell the scent of orange blossom 🌼.
