Armação de Pera Information
Armação de Pera
- History
 Not very long ago this town was nothing more than a
collection of small shacks where the local residents from
the nearby village of Pera used to maintain their fishing
boats. It is quite probable that the name "Armação" is a
link with the distant past of the great Tuna fishing
industry that existed along the Algarve from the 15th
Century and before. This later fell under the protection of
a small 18th Century fort that still remains in part to this
day.
Armação de Pera
- Description
 Nowadays,
the town is mainly composed of blocks of holiday apartments
of which present bars and restaurants on the ground floor.
In the three summer months the town overflows with tourists
but outside the top of the season it offers a wonderful
peaceful holiday location. Meanwhile, the nearby rural
village of Pera remains as a reminder of the un-spoilt
typical sleepy Algarve. Boasting one of the finest longest
sandy beaches in the Algarve this is a popular location for
tourists. On the beach close to the eastern side of the town
are a number of fish restaurants that pride themselves on
serving fresh fish. The spread of building from Armação de
Pera has been mainly to the west with the creation of
several holiday apartment complexes above the very charming
beaches of Senhora da Rocha.
