Wide Blue Flag beach framed by low red cliffs and rock formations, east of Albufeira. A popular family beach with generally gentle water.

Hazards rock outcrops at both ends of the beach · rockfall from the cliffs behind the sand · rips beside the rocks when the swell is up · crowded in summer, lifeguards in season only

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.
