Good to know

Visit for solitude and scenery
The beach remains quiet and uncrowded compared to nearby Verdicio, with fine sand, dunes, and rocky pools.
Arrive early in summer
The parking lot fills by late morning on hot weekends, particularly in August.
Expect a steep walk down
The path from the parking area descends a dune with significant slope, making the return climb challenging.
No lifeguards or facilities
There are no lifeguards, showers, or beach bar, and strong waves occur frequently.
