I found this beach accidentally and I fall in love with it since the first moment. I went to the nearby Praia do Martinhal and then went to a stroll, walking towards East. And then I saw it! Crystal clear waters, flat sea... and not a single person on it. Although the big sister, Praia do Martinhal, is only 400 meters far, and it's full of people, there was nobody but me on this one. Perhaps because it's not made of fine sand, as it's common in Portugal, or perhaps it a bit farther. Most probably for the two reasons.

You will find nothing here but yourself and the Nature. No bar, no people, no facilities. The coordinates are from the center of the beach, which anyway is tiny. Access is from the nearby Praia do Martinhal, for which I created another waymark.
