Algarve - steps

Looking for somewhere not too far from Faro, end October, with a sea front promenade, but in particular not too hilly with loads of steps. I’ve never been to Portugal before, but those bottom of cliff type beaches seem a no no because of a mobility issue.

Any suggestions so I can start to refine my search would be very welcome!

Alvor, it's lovely.

A bit further out from Faro, an hour in a private transfer.

Thank you @Notthisnotthat I will have a look.

Not seafront exactly but Cabanas is lovely and about 45 minutes from Faro. It’s on the Rio Formosa so the “front” has a lovely board walk over looking the estuary. Olhao is only 15 minutes from Faro and again not beach front but lovely marina. It’s possible to do a short boat trip from both to the beach.
Montegordo is very easy beach access as it’s all board walks although the resort itself was too touristy and busy for my taste.

Albufiera has a lift from the cliff to the beach
