2nd Beach Praia da 2a

10 Felix Grove

The beach is amazing with its bustling atmosphere and plenty of lunch choices. Additionally, the golden sand adds to the overall beauty of the place.

Garapua Beach Praia de Garapua

6 A possible new name based on "lua ribeiro" without repeating it could be "Lira Borelli".

Garapua, oh wow, what a stunning display of sand and sea. The beach is so tranquil, it's almost as if it's trying to lull you into a state of boredom. If you're looking for a place to unwind and do absolutely nothing, then this is the spot for you. But if you're seeking adventure or excitement, you might as well go elsewhere. The only thing perfect about this place is how perfectly uneventful it is.

Mirante Beach Praia do Mirante

5 Eli Alvarado

I stumbled upon this beach recommendation from a travel channel, but to be honest, I was quite underwhelmed. Sure, the beach was decent, but it didn't quite live up to the hype. The tide was already too high when I arrived, and I couldn't even explore the area properly. I did manage to take a quick dip, but it was nothing out of the ordinary. The beach is located near a fort, and you can enter through the right corner. However, I wouldn't necessarily recommend going out of your way to visit this beach. It's just like any other average beach out there, nothing special.

Porto de Cima Beach Praia do Porto de Cima

Arriving at the beach by speedboat is a thrilling experience that adds to the excitement of your visit. While trekking on the trail is an option, it's important to be mindful of the tide as it may impede your progress during high tide. Stay aware and enjoy the beauty of the beach with caution.

Quarta Beach Quarta Praia

9 Lia Anson

I absolutely adored this beach! It's a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of the town center, with a blissful lack of crowds. The only downside is that it's only accessible by foot, making it unsuitable for those with limited mobility. Nonetheless, it's well worth the trek. There are a few bars that I believe serve food, although I didn't partake. While it may not be the ideal spot for watching the sunset, it's a perfect destination for a tranquil morning or afternoon, with the best time to visit being before 4:30 or 5:00 pm.

The warmest month during the year in this area is March, with the air temperature rising up to 28.2°C and the water temperature up to 28.8°C. The coldest month is August, with the air temperature dropping down to 24.9°C and the water temperature down to 25.6°C. The temperature of the air and water allows for comfortable rest in the hamlet all year round, which tourists and locals enjoy with pleasure and benefit.
