What to expect
The Amparo church dates from the late twentieth century and serves a residential part of Portimão near the municipal swimming pools. Its interest is its active parish role, offering a different perspective from the town’s older, heavily decorated churches.
The parish also has links with Santa Catarina chapel at Praia da Rocha, but the two venues have different locations. Travellers staying near the coast should use the exact church address when arranging worship or a visit.
