About the Beach
What is Praia do Valentim de Carvalho 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 Portimão.
Praia do Valentim de Carvalho Beach has a sand of small dimensions divided in half by an edge of the cliff. Right in front of it, less that 10 meters away, lies a large rock.
The sand gets almost fully immersed during high tide.
Almost all the beach has hidden rocks underwater, except in a small area at the eastern end.
Access is via sea or through the cliff slope.
