A perfect beach day in Albufeira

We got up at 11am. I slept like 9+ hours which already is a good day. Then hubby and I got "reacquainted" which is always a great way to start any day. 😋😬 Going on vacation without the kids is like going on our honeymoon again.

We took a short Uber for lunch by the beach. I think Praia du Oura is my favorite beach in albufeira Portugal as it's smaller and has a great backdrop of some rock formations. I was craving a burger, something simple. We had a table by the sea and had our simple lunch but also had fish soup which was amazing and melon for dessert which was super sweet

We paid 15 euros for two chairs and an umbrella at the front row of chairs facing the ocean and just hung out, including a swim in the ocean to cool off, a shower to rinse. We also got fresh juice, slushy and a crepe with Nutella during our 4 hours there

At six o'clock we went to the terrace lounge for some drinks and to see the view. The strawberry gin, passion fruit mojito and coconut frozen daiquiri we're delicious.

We ended with dinner at the same place as lunch as we loved it so much. Cuica restaurant. They bring in fresh fish everyday and the service was so nice. We chose the grilled seabass from the ocean and not farmed. Divine as they grill it over charcoal with just some sea salt. Octopus salad was also super fresh and good.

By the time we Uber home to pack it was 10pm. What a relaxing day and it was a perfect 81 degrees all day with the ocean breeze🤗
