For our anniversary this year (11 years!), we discovered a true slice of paradise: Edd’s Beach in Ferragudo. Tucked along the golden sands of Praia do Pintadinho, this dreamy beachfront restaurant and lounge isn’t just a place to eat… it’s an experience.
From the moment we arrived, the scene was straight out of a coastal daydream. Edd’s blends modern beach-chic design with laid-back Algarve charm. Think natural wood tones, airy fabrics, thoughtful details, and an open layout that lets the ocean breeze flow right through. You’re literally steps from the sand… you can hear the waves and feel the sun on your face while sipping a crisp glass of wine. We couldn’t have chosen a better spot to celebrate.
About the beach: Praia do Pintadinho
Praia do Pintadinho is one of Ferragudo’s most stunning beaches. Quieter than Praia Grande, but just as beautiful. Surrounded by cliffs and sprinkled with shells, it’s perfect for sunbathing, swimming, or taking a slow walk down the shore. If you’re lucky, you’ll spot the iconic red-and-white striped Farol da Ponta do Altar just up the coast — one of the best spots in the Algarve to catch the sunset.
The vibe of Edd’s Beach
Edd’s has a grown-up, coastal-cool energy without being pretentious. It’s elegant but approachable… great for a romantic date, an elevated beach lunch, or even just a midday escape with friends. The staff are warm and attentive, and the music is just right: upbeat but never overpowering.
The food: fresh, local, delicious
The menu is focused on fresh, high-quality ingredients with global beachside flair. We shared a few dishes and loved every bite… a vibrant poke bowl loaded with fresh fish and veggies, a refreshing seafood salad that tasted like summer on a plate, and a wood-fired pizza that hit the perfect balance of crispy and chewy with rich, simple toppings.
Everything was beautifully presented, full of flavor, and clearly crafted with care. The kind of meal that makes you want to slow down and savor.
No dessert this time (we were happily full!), but the food, setting, and sea breeze were more than enough to make it a meal to remember.
How do you book Edd’s Beach?
Reservations are required, especially in the summer season. You can now book directly on their website at eddsbeach.com, quick, easy, and worth it to snag a prime table with ocean views. Whether you’re planning a romantic meal or an afternoon lounge session, booking ahead ensures you don’t miss out.
Why should you go?
There are plenty of beachside spots in the Algarve, but few offer what Edd’s does. A luxurious and spectacular setting, exceptional food, stylish design, and a calm, relaxed atmosphere that invites you to stay all day. It’s both a destination and a vibe — the kind of place you dream about long after you leave.
We came for our anniversary and left planning our next visit. Whether you’re local or just passing through, Edd’s Beach is a Ferragudo must.
