Golden Island beach.

Contained by Alqueva Dam, River Guadiana gave rise to a large lake and plenty of islands (former hill tops). After months of drought, the level of water dropped 16 metres; still this lake can supply water for another 2 years, even with no significant rainfall, unlike elsewhere in Portugal.

HFW!
