4 of 4 tips placed on the map
Centro
★★★
Photo spot: From the sandbar between lagoon and ocean — Atlantic on one side, still lagoon water on the other, sun dropping behind both
Pro tip: Lagoon side is warm, calm and perfect for kids — Atlantic side is wild. Sunset over the lagoon with kitesurfers in the air is the shot
Centro
★★★
Photo spot: From the base of the cliffs at golden hour — erosion-sculpted golden rock formations and empty sand in both directions
Pro tip: Walk the cliff path heading south — the 11km stretch to Baleal is one of the most dramatic coastal walks in central Portugal
Alrededores
★★
Photo spot: From the cliff top path looking down — red clay cliffs, rock formations and wild Atlantic in one shot
Pro tip: No facilities — bring water and food. Check tide tables before going, the rock formations at the base of the cliffs are only accessible at low tide
Alrededores
★★
Photo spot: From the rocky headland at the north end — village, causeway and Atlantic all in one frame
Pro tip: Park outside the village and walk the causeway in — one of the most photogenic approaches to any beach in Portugal
