General information
Long straight beaches dominate the coast of Portugal. Large spaces mean you can always
find a comfortable place to relax. That is why travelers appreciate these places so much. One of the
disadvantages of this type of beach is the scarce natural shade, so if you choose to relax on the wild
part of the coast, be prepared to be alone with the scorching sun without the opportunity to take cover
in a cool shade.
Most beaches of Portugal are located within settlements, usually more
accessible and well equipped, but less picturesque. The latter does not apply to Portugal
because, despite a large number of city beaches, many still offer stunning views.
