CAVALO PRETO BEACH RESORT
LOCAL INFORMATION
Cavalo Preto is the local name for the beach area where the condominium is located. On the beach is a popular local cafe and restaurant which offers fresh local fish and meats cooked on an outdoor grill. More cafes, bars and restaurants can be found a short walk from the apartment along the newly developed promenade which starts just 150 m from the apartment and can be followed right into the heart of Quarteira with its well established fish market and local shopping.

Restaurants
BJ's the best beachside restaurant in the Algarve (in my opinion). Walk down to the beach, turn left walking along the beach or through the trees for 700m. min drive for the lazy non drinkers. Fabulous beachside atmosphere http://www.bjsoceanside.com
