About the Beach
What is Praia do Cavalo 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 Odemira.
Praia do Cavalo Beach, also known as Praia do Prédio Beach, as a small strip of sand intersected by pebbles.
During low tide a vast area of rocks gets exposed.
