Blue Flag sand-and-rock cove in a fishing village east of Albufeira, with natural rock pools at each end. A calm family beach on most days.

Shared forecast The offshore forecast here is shared with Albufeira — Praia da Galé / Salgados, Albufeira — Praia do Peneco, Armação de Pêra, Evaristo, Praia da Falésia / Rocha Baixinha. Wave models resolve about 8 km, so neighbouring beaches read the same swell. What separates them is orientation, seabed and tide, not the forecast.
