Sheltered W/NW-facing cove just west of Sagres point; smaller and friendlier than the open coast, a good progression spot when Beliche is too heavy.

Hazards rocks at the cove edges · rip current down the middle

Shared forecast The offshore forecast here is shared with Cordoama, Praia da Ponta Ruiva, Praia do Castelejo, Sagres — Beliche. Wave models resolve about 8 km, so neighbouring beaches read the same swell. What separates them is orientation, seabed and tide, not the forecast.
