👍👍 No one here besides some fishers from time to time. The last bit is difficult to climb. There is a rope that you have to use. People often mention beach, praia,

    We tried to hike down here with 5 kids age 7-12. It’s not easy. The 7 year old fell over hard. The two 9 year olds ended up with splinters and thorns in their hands. The 11 and 12 year old got separated from the group and got lost. The mums made it to the beach briefly while looking for the lost children. In the end, we found everyone and managed to clamber back up to safety, but it was not quite the beach trip we were planning. The photo shows the route we took. It seems the beach can only be accessed from the south side because the cliffs are too steep on the other sides. Bring tweezers, antiseptic and plasters!

    Hard to access but it's worth exploring. There is a hidden natural pool to the right and if the tide is right it's a great place for scuba diving.

    Epic swim if calm on a gorgeous beach. It was a very private public bath as no one else was there. Lots of cute jellyfish and nice rocks. Access by bike is possible but easier on foot

    Hard to access, also seems to have a tendency to be frequented by jellyfish.

    (Translated by Google) Currently without sand, it is nonetheless a very nice cove suitable for active people. At low tide you have a beautiful natural pool at the west end, which allows for good photographs. (Original) Actualmente sem areia, é apesar disso uma enseada muito simpatica adequada a pessoas activas. Na maré baixa tem uma bonita piscina natural na extremidade oeste, que possibilita boas fotografias.

    Beautiful hiking trail leading to a private stoney beach. Quite and studding but can be challenging to reach or get out. Wear your boots and tighten your shoe laces!

    Unaccessible as far as I could tell without significant climbing. It's a gorgeous beach though. Definitely worth the hike. It's a very fun and scenic trial to get down as close as I could get.

    Not the easiest beach to reach, but if you like hiking and discovering new places it's a must.

    (Translated by Google) We went to the place because it seemed to be an isolated, beautiful place with few people. Everything was right and for some reason, it is still an enigma if there is any access to the beach. Moreover, it is worth for the short walk and the views. Good photos are obtained in the area. (Original) Fomos ao local por parecer um local isolado, bonito e com pouca gente. Tudo estava certo e por alguma razão, ainda é um enigma se existe algum acesso à praia. De resto, vale pelo pequeno passeio e pelas vistas. Conseguem-se boas fotos na zona.
