The picture postcard village of Ferragudo is becoming increasingly popular and their forward thinking local council have unveiled some very ambitious plans that will breathe a new lease of life into the traditional village. A multi-million euro plan includes the renovation of the main northern entrance to the village, as well as the construction of a three-storey car park (with a capacity for 120 vehicles) that will also boast a viewpoint overlooking the village on its top storey plus a boardwalk linking Angrinha and Praia Grande beaches. The council estimates the initiative will cost around €5 million and the main focus will be on planting more trees and creating more ‘green spaces’ along the riverside, making the area more appealing.
