Praia da Figueira (Figueira Beach)

Reviewed By rftu - Newry, United Kingdom

What a beach...soo much sand. The beach is so huge parts of it are given over to artificial football pitches. Great walkways to take you closer to the sea shore. Not good for swimming unless you are exceptionally strong. Great expanse for some privacy
