Albufeira’s ‘beach season’ officially began yesterday, with lifeguards operating on 25 beaches running ‘concessions’ (sunbeds, etc.) in the municipality. The rest of the region’s beaches should follow suit from June 1, with supervision remaining in place until September. (The people in the photo are not the lifeguards, they are the mayor, in the centre, and various council officials, trying to look ‘summery’).
