Latest reviews on Portela de Belmonte's beaches

Praia de Sao Lourenco

10 Sara Laine

This charming beach is perfect for families and is conveniently located on the surf route. While it may not be as dependable as Ribeira to the South, it is still a stunning spot. The beach is well-maintained and features a cafe/bar, as well as easy access to the sand. Restrooms are conveniently located next to the bar, and children will enjoy feeding the nearby ducks. The beach also offers free umbrella grass shades, which are more plentiful and better situated closer to the sea than those found at Ribeira.

Praia dos Pescadores

10 Adam Williams

This stunning beach with breathtaking scenery of the quaint village, albeit a tad congested. Its natural allure is undeniable, with crystal-clear waters and pristine sands that beckon visitors to bask in its splendor. However, the influx of tourists can make for a bustling atmosphere, which may not be everyone's cup of tea. Nevertheless, it remains a remarkable destination that offers a glimpse into the local culture and a chance to soak up the sun's warmth.
