Great views over the lake and the river. It's quite an engineering work. Although it was completed in 2002, is reservoir only achieved it's full capacity in 2010. If you have time, we recommend a car or motorhome trip to adjacent villages and fluvial beach.

The #AlquevaDam is a #Portuguese arch dam, located on the #GuadianaRiver , in the #BaixoAlentejo region. The construction of this dam allowed the creation of the largest artificial water reservoir in #WesternEurope, also called the #GreatLake. It was built in 2004. Capture the bigge infrastructure

The dam was not on when we went. The surrounding scenery is beautiful and it is possible to swim in some of the fluvial beaches. The creation of this damn, brought much needed water to the southern Alentejo region and increased development while also displacing residents of the Luz village. I just really wish people wouldn't litter, there is a disgusting amount of plastics and garbage swimming in the waters of the damn along with lots of fish (there were dead ones and a very fishy smell as well when we visited today).

Obra digna de se ver que dá origem ao maior lago artificial da Europa.

A Barragem do Alqueva. Talvez a obra de engenharia mais mediática e absolutamente necessário das últimas décadas em Portugal. O Alentejo finalmente nas bocas do Mundo, pelas melhores razões.
