The House

Algarve seafood, with the sea right in front

On the promenade of Armação de Pêra, next to Fishermen's Beach, Hera serves the best the Algarve sea has to offer: stuffed crab, oysters, prawns and fresh fish straight from the display counter to the charcoal grill.

Alongside comes traditional Portuguese cuisine — fish soup, razor clam rice, steak on the stone — and a bar with wines, cocktails, gins and our house sangria.

We are open all day, from lunch to dinner, with the sea for company. Come and see us — the terrace is waiting for you.
