Cerro da Vila
Avenida Cerro da VilaRia Formosa Natural Park
This is the place if you are looking for those scenic beaches. They are beautiful but if you are looking for a relaxed day in the beach, they are not for you as they are always very packed with tourists.
I still recommend you to go to at least 2 of this:
- Benagil caves
- Praia da Marinha
- Praia Dona Ana
- Praia do Camilo
