"The beach has tranquil waters, devoid of any waves. In one section, you'll find the Vila Galé Resort, which offers an abundance of sunbeds. On the opposite side, it's more peaceful and there are shaded spots available. If you don't have a car, there's a convenient circular bus route (C04 - Vila Velha) that departs from the city center and has a stop near the Resort."
