Comporta Beach

This place can be a bit pricey for locals, but you don't have to pay for a sunbed. You can bring your own umbrella and sunbed. The sand is a bit sticky, but the ocean is beautiful. Just be careful if it's windy, as it can get rough. There's a cafe that sells water, cocktails, and snacks.
Praia de Sao Joao

Incredibly dirty, everything around the bars. In the bush after cutting down trees and shrubs to increase parking, the dry remains are scattered, if there is a fire, everything burns. Parking is very expensive.
Arrabida Beach

There is a fascinating shrine or temple tucked away inside a cave.
When I went, I noticed that there were already several kayaking tour groups there, which suggests that kayaking is a popular and enjoyable activity at this location.
To reach the beach, I took the main road and followed a stairway path. Along the way, there are numerous cacti, so it's important to exercise a bit of caution, although they don't completely obstruct the path.
If you happen to be in the area, it's definitely worth a visit, although I wouldn't go out of my way specifically for it. The nearby beach is a compelling reason to spend the day here and drop by on your way there.

Good restraunt nearby beach. We enjoyed fresh seafood throughout our visit, such as sea bream, salmon, swordfish, and sardines, as well as clams and omelettes for the little ones. The gin and tonics were fantastic, and we loved watching the sunset. The service was friendly and welcoming.

This beautiful beach with crystal-clear, invigoratingly cool water that offers a refreshing respite from the scorching sun. Safety is a top priority here, as evidenced by the small swimming area that is cordoned off from the rest of the water.
