    If you come from Praia da Figueirinha side, you must use the Bus to reach this beach since the trafic is not allowed. If not, and if you are lucky to park the car, then you just need to go down directly to a beautiful beach. The mountain around make the perfect picture of this beach. The negative points (and this the reason only for 4 stars) are the walking you need to do from the parking until the beach and the stones on the water. The prices, 14€ for the umbrella I think is also expensive. But all this will be forgotten when you arrive to the beach. You must walk to the Praia do Monte Branco where the place is also amazing. At the end of the day there is a kind of tuk-tuk that can bring you up all the way up. The price is between 2€ and 3€ per person. I think is very expensive but it's a choice.

    Very nice beach. Nature reserve: Rich underwater fauna, no hotels. But: difficult to achieve. Parking only possible far away from the beach.

    One of the worst beaches I have been to. Very crowded, no parking possibilities. You need to walk quite a while to be able to get there. The access road is full of cars on both sides parked illegally, but there's no other place to park given how small the paid parkings are. The beach bars also close extremely early so there's nothing to do there pretty much after 18:00.

    I liked it very much, it reminds me of Crimea and Turkey

    Very nice place. Windy, but the water is comparatively warmer here than other beaches near Lisboa. If you’re looking for public transport options, lookup for the bus 4472 from Setubal since google map does not show it

    (Translated by Google) Beach area with spectacular surroundings! Sea and mountains in perfect union of extraordinary beauty. Regret the closure of the road to Portinho. So we go to Creiro. Parking is too expensive (4 Euros), as afterwards the beach infrastructure is very weak and the sand is poorly clean. The Roman ruins and the fountain are abandoned and neglected ... Question: WHERE IS THE MONEY GOING TO CONTRIBUTORS PAY FOR PARKING THE CAR .... C.M., Setúbal should be much more careful with its heritage. And concerned with better conditions for users of its beaches and region. It would be a great help to stimulate employment and make the city and its surroundings more in demand. (Original) Zona de praia com uma envolvência espetacular! Mar e serra em união perfeita de uma beleza extraordinária. Lamentar o fecho da estrada para o Portinho. Assim vamos até ao Creiro. Demasiado caro o parqueamento ( 4 Euros ), pois que depois as infraestruturas da praia são muito fracas e a areia mal limpa. As ruínas romanas e a fonte encontram-se abandonadas e desprezadas... Pergunta : PARA ONDE VAI O DINHEIRO QUE OS CONTRIBUINTES PAGAM POR ESTACIONAR O CARRO.... A C.M.,Setúbal deveria ser muito mais cuidadosa com o seu património. E preocupada com melhores condições para os utilizadores das suas praias e região. Seria de uma grande ajuda para estimular o emprego e tornar a cidade e arredores mais procurada.

    Super beautiful beach with refreshingly cool water in which you can escape from the sun. There is a small swimming area separated off from the main body of water to keep the swimmers safe which was nice. There are Kayaks and paddle boards for renting which I would definitely recommend as you can paddle to the rock in the water and the ln through the crack in the middle of it which was quite cool.

    Actually a nice beach but in our case it was very dirty. Although there are enough garbage cans. Even found glass in the water.

    My favorite beach, it doesn't matter if its winter or summer I absolutely love this place. When im home on holidays i drive all the way from Lisbon to enjoy with my family this peaceful, beautiful place in Arrabida.

    Not so close to Setúbal. 15 minutes by Uber. Possible to go by car, Uber, bus (not always) Anyway, really nice place. If you want to go by bus you have to take a bus in Setúbal (to the train station for example)and stop in Praia de Figureiras. There you can find a bus "special edition" that will move you until Praia do Creiro. There is a bar / restaurant on the beach (a bit expensive - 1 maindish 15euro) anyway the sea is wonderful. Water really clean and not full of people.

    Spectacular beach in the middle of a natural reserve. Sandy beach with big rocks on one of the sides. It has some restaurants and in the weekends you need to get there early or the parking gets full and long waiting time to be able to access

    Wonderful beach but beware of burglars! We came here late October and it was very quiet. The beach is super nice!! The restaurants were closed but it is an easy walk to Praia do Portinho da Arrábida where restaurants were open. Unfortunately though when we returned to our rental car the rear window was smashed. Just pure vandalism I think as there was nothing in the car and they didn’t even look inside (doors still locked).

    (Translated by Google) In addition to the beach, there are some interesting Roman ruins. In fact, these ruins should be better preserved, the state of abandonment is at least alarming.

  • 5/5 Aline C. 3 years ago on Google
    Praia do Creiro is one of the best beaches in Serra da Arrabida. To get to the beach you have to walk down the hill through a paved path, where you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the Serra Da Arrabida and the ocean. There is a good parking lot and good structure on the beach with bars and restaurants. Definitely a gorgeous place!

  • 4/5 D B. 1 year ago on Google
    Stunning beach in Setúbal. You can easily go there by public transport from Lisbon even if it might take a while (Fertagus + bus 4472). There are rocks in the sea but if you go to the left side of the beach, where there are also less people, you will avoid them while getting into the sea. There's also a bar if you'd like to eat and drink as well. Totally recommend it!

  • 4/5 X X. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice beach but a vit dirty after the cyclone and nobody really took care if it anymore at the end of the season. Be aware of the parking lot scammers next to the main road before the police checkpoint! They will actively approach you in the car and charge you 4 euros before you even can consider to drive downhill to the beach. Because it's free to park downhill next to the beach!

    Amazing peaceful beach to enjoy.

  • 5/5 Shannon M. 6 months ago on Google
    Truly otherworldly beach! So special and so secluded. I feel so grateful to have visited. Highly recommend a visit if you’re able. Two things to consider: 1. Getting to the beach involves a somewhat strenuous walk up/down a hill. I managed to do it, but it was quite tiring. 2. If you are a tourist coming from Setúbal during off-season, it’s very tricky to get to and from this beach. My sister and I took an Uber to the beach, but our Uber driver informed us that it would be hard to book a return Uber. He was absolutely correct. We tried to book an Uber around 5:30 pm, and there were absolutely no Ubers in the area. I ended up calling a local taxi company (Taxis Setúbal), and they came to the rescue. Our driver was excellent, and the company was communicative and efficient. All this to say— make sure to plan accordingly when you visit this incredible beach! The logistical hurtles are totally worth it.

    Great beach a tip is drive down from the car park drop off your bags passengers then drive back up to park. (This will test your clutch as steep) clear water easy to swim and good size fish to look at when snorkelling.

  • 5/5 Keely S. 6 months ago on Google

    Nice white sand beach sheltered by the hills. There are more pebbles than in the nearby Praia da Fingueirinha. There are ancient Roman ruins of fish salting houses next to the car park.
