Small cliff-backed beach on the Lourinhã coast, facing west-north-west and open to the swell. Check the surf and the flag before you swim.

Hazards rip currents · rocks at the foot of the cliffs · unstable cliffs behind the beach

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