  Went to Salgados beach during our recent stay, we had never been there before. The beach and lagoon are really pretty. We had a lovely day there.  The building going on is horrid however. There you have a five star hotel set in the middle of a building site, if I had paid to stay there, I'd have been livid. And another complaint, there was not a naked man in sight, I took binoculars speciallyPeople%20Watching

My friend has an apartment that looks onto this development, this is the worst case scenario for him, a finished hotel in front of you will look better than a building site. If they knocked it all down he would be very happy !

Well I first noticed that they had stopped work several months ago and it might even have been earlier than that.

Same as elsewhere I would imagine, developers ran out of cash, stopped paying building contractors, contractors walked away.

We are going to be blighted by the half built ruins for years.

If you would like to see the lagoon with lots of water in it, please see the latest album at http://thomasallen.spaces.live.com

Pictures taken last Wednesday.

There's also some shots of the nearby beaches and one or two other things.

The lagoon was very full on Monday afternoon. There's one picture in the latest album at http://thomasallen.spaces.live.com if you would like to see it.

There were plenty of birds of assorted species to be seen and the area looks to be flourishing at the moment.

Yikes!

Thanks for the confirmation Cubsur, I'm no prude, each to their own etc., but as it's not a sight that particularly pleases me, I'll turn left in future!

Andrew, you are I think correct in that assumption. I was told some time back it's a pickup place. Haven't walked that bit in summer for ages.

Well the past two weeks it's been fully full, loads of wildlife and fish activity to see, the new pontoon type walkway was being well used.
 
What surprised us, on one of our frequent beach walks we decided, from the Salgados car park, to go right towards AdP, just for achange. As we neared AdP, about 400yards I guess, we stumbled upon several naked men! Is this area known as a gay nudist area? I've not heard the like but the numbers there, and not a single female, lead me to conclude this must be the case.
 
Anyone?
Andrew
