Has there ever been a tsunami in the Algarve?


Has there ever been a tsunami in the Algarve? The 1755 tsunami was not an unprecedented event. In fact, there are references to tsunamis caused by other earthquakes which hit the Algarve. A few years earlier, in December 27th, 1722, there was also a tsunami although its effects were only felt locally (SOUSA, 1915).
