Description

Wild beach or/and without lifeguard.

Our rating 3/10

Prainha Beach has a very small sand with the shape of a seashell.
The surrounding cliff protects it from the wind and transforms it into a cosy corner.
Nearby, flows the Ribeira do Barranco de Vale Figueira¹.
In order to attend this beach it is necessary to pay attention to tidal periods, since the sea covers all the beach during high tide.
The access is through the sand of the north neighboring beach, during low tide.
