This is such a nice beach. It's large, so there's a lot of room, and the water is really clean. There are waves, but they're quite gentle so they're good for surfing or if you just want to take a dip.

Came with the family and we had a great day. The beach is quite big with plenty of space for everyone to be well over 2m apart due to covid19. Parking wasn't an issue, we arrived around 11 and there was lots of space, at least during weekdays on vacation. Lots of surfers here as it's a hotspot for surfing. Water is a bit cold, not that bad really, but once you get in you're good. Highly recommended, will come again!…

In parallel, the beaches are too crowded, and constructions in the area spread as rabbits: the wrong away to promote sustainable tourism.…

Beautiful beach that goes on for miles. Can choose more surfer side or a calmer side. Lots of restaurants and cafes available.

Ilha de Baeal from above! More on instagram: @giuseppecannavoo Easy to access by car, not many parking places and much more enjoyable in low season. There are a few bars but there are mostly only houses and accommodations. Before the "entrance" to the island you can also find some surf school. It's very windy but still an amazing location where to watch the sunset. If you're into aerial photography such as me be aware of the seagulls, there're a lot of them here.…
