Sits west of the Ponta da Piedade headland so it catches more of the wrapped SW swell than the bay beaches to the east; the pick of the Lagos beaches for a bit of size.

Hazards rocky outcrops exposed at low tide · rip near the cliffs

Shared forecast The offshore forecast here is shared with Lagos — Meia Praia. Wave models resolve about 8 km, so neighbouring beaches read the same swell. What separates them is orientation, seabed and tide, not the forecast.
