WING AND A PRAIA
This coastline knew exactly what we needed. It took the edge off, cooled the blood, smoothed the noise. We rattled our way in on a scooter, dust in our teeth, bones juddering, the road doing its best to shake us loose. We dumped the bike under an umbrella pine, pulled up Google Maps and squinted. Yeah. Down there.
We’d spent the week chasing rumours, leaning into misread tips and seaside whispers, prowling both sides of Albufeira like kids hunting the jingle of an ice cream truck. Crowds were never part of the plan. We’d already clocked enough lobster-skinned tourists lying flat and obedient, marinating in heavy lunches. We wanted beauty with its sleeves rolled up, a beach that could hold a gaze.
Praia de Armação de Pêra didn’t blink. It gave us the lot, and did it with a grin.
