Pego do Inferno is a tranquil natural pool fed by a gentle waterfall, nestled in a verdant valley just north of Tavira. Visitors can wade into the cool, clear water or relax on the rocky edges shaded by trees. The site is a popular escape from the heat, offering a serene setting for a picnic or a short hike along the stream. Its name, meaning 'Hell's Pool,' contrasts with the idyllic scenery.
