About the Beach
What is Praia da Quebrada Beach?
It's an Oceanic Beach in the northern hemisphere bathed by the Atlantic Ocean, located on the coast of Portugal - Iberian Peninsula - in the municipality of Aljezur.
Praia da Quebrada Beach, also known as Praia da Baía dos Tiros Beach, is characterized for having numerous rocks beside the bathing area.
The little existent sand gets immersed during high tide.
When the tide is low there's a vast area of rocky slab intersected by some strips of sand.
The access is achieved through a trail on a steep and rocky scarp of the cliff, beside an isolated house.
