👍👍 This beach is between Praia Grande and Praia das Macas. Access is easy but it is not a guarded beach. Good for surfing and one of the few beaches dogs can take during the bathing season. Depending on the years, at high tide you can almost run out of sand. Scenographically very beautiful, especially... People often mention beach, Praia, beautiful, praia, sand, Beautiful, nice,

    (Translated by Google) This beach is between Praia Grande and Praia das Macas. Access is easy but it is not a guarded beach. Good for surfing and one of the few beaches dogs can take during the bathing season. Depending on the years, at high tide you can almost run out of sand. Scenographically very beautiful, especially at sunset, with rocks of beautiful gold. (Original) Esta praia fica entre a Praia Grande e a Praia das Maçãs. O acesso é fácil mas não é uma praia vigiada. Boa para surf e uma das poucas praias a que se pode levar os cães durante a época balnear. Dependendo dos anos, na maré cheia pode ficar quase sem areia. Cenograficamente muito bonita, sobretudo ao por-do-sol, com rochas de um lindo dourado.

    Not touristy beach, we had a great Picknick there and watched the tide roll in.

    I saw a wolf tracks on the sand so this beach can be dangerous, also there are ancient ruins on the side, I don't know, maybe some old Mayan or Aztec settlement from the time they discovered Europe

    (Translated by Google) There is everything here: the majestic raging Ocean, steep mountain cliffs, a magnificent sandy beach, stony fields of huge boulders and places for complete solitude ... (Original) Здесь есть всё: величественный бушующий Океан, обрывистые горные утёсы, великолепный песчаный пляж, каменистые поля из огромных каменных глыб и места для полного уединения...

    (Translated by Google) Good beach on the coast of Sintra. This beach has no concession so there are no services and guards. For this reason it is one of the few beaches in the region where you can go with your dog. The water is very cold and the waves are strong, so most visitors are surfers. Access is not complicated but you have to go down a long ramp from the top of the cliff. Normally there is not much public unlike its neighbor, Praia Grande. Keep it up for a long time. (Original) Buena playa de la costa de Sintra. Esta playa no tiene concesión por lo que no hay servicios y vigilantes. Por esta razón es de las pocas playas de la región en las que puedes ir con tu perro. El agua está muy fría y el oleaje es fuerte por lo que la mayoría de los visitantes son practicantes del surf. El acceso no es complicado pero hay que bajar una larga rampa desde lo alto del acantilado. Normalmente no hay demasiado público a diferencia de su vecina, Praia Grande. Que siga así mucho tiempo.

    (Translated by Google) There is a steep climb from the side of the apple beach - I recommend running shoes, the return trip in the evening is blocked by a fresh stream, from the Aribas Sintra side the hotel is a good road, but it will be difficult to get up from the beach 😉 (Original) Со стороны яблочного пляжа крутой подъём - рекомендую кроссовки, обратный путь вечером преграждён пресным ручьём, со стороны Арибас Синтра отель хорошая дорога, но подниматься с пляжа будет сложновато 😉

    Absolutely superb we were hoping to eat here this evening but it closed at 4pm today so nipped in at lunch time and had the seafood rice dish for two.... beautiful, loads of prawns, cockles and mussels along with lobster in a beautiful sauce with rice, we thoroughly enjoyed it along with the cheese cake or course 😁👍.

    (Translated by Google) Praia Pequena do Rodízio has been banned for many years due to the risk of collapse of the cliff. It is an unsupervised beach, so it is frequented almost exclusively by surfers. Very dangerous...

😠 Please don’t waste your time or money. $30 for 4 people to taste half a glass of wine each. Very poor service and explanation. We tasted a €5 wine that was dismal at best. Do yourself a great favor and go somewhere else that produces respectable wine…..
