The white sand beach is very nice with open beach on either side of the established beach. There are two restaurants, though I think the food at Pego Beach was better.

The experience was outstanding, so worth every cent! We went to meet donkeys before the riding and the horses were well taken care of, seemed happy and healthy. There was about a 15 minute ride thru the forest before we reached the beach and IT WAS AMAZING! The views, Luis (the host) and the experience in all was amazing. Book now!

The beach was OK, if a little windy. The car parking here is free, unlike some other nearby Beaches, but the parking area and the surrounding properties are very rundown and there seemed to be people wild camping there and they were untidy.
A good lagoon for bird watching.

We took both tours with a lovely young lady who's English was marvoulus, she was very knowledgeable, educational, and had great since of humour. The total cost was 10euro. The tour was very informative and we had a super afternoon. The local guide dog was very friendly, I hope he is still ok, would recommend this museum to all my friends. We especially liked the little quiz we had the highest score!
6. Quinta do Brejinho

It’s at a peaceful and wild beauty landscape, where nature and tranquility merge, that the Brejinho wines are produced. Under the best portuguese sun, joined by the close Atlantic and a sandy soil, you’ll find truly unforgettable wines…

Fizemos em grupo uma visita a esta quinta, para fazer uma prova de vinho apenas por conhecer e gostar do vinho desta casa. Fomos surpreendidos com uma excelente recepção, com uma visita por todas as instalações com explicações detalhadas de todo o processo, e até uma visita às futuras instalações. Desde a prova do vinho directamente do barril, a uma fantástica prova de vinhos ao ar livre num cenário inimaginável, com prova de produtos regionais para acompanhar. De salientar o atendimento/acompanhamento de todo o pessoal envolvido na prova, simpatia e disposição para esclarecer qualquer dúvida ou capricho.
No final, a visita à loja é uma perdição, tendo os vinhos à disposição para compra, e ninguém consegue sair de "mãos a abanar", com tanta variedade e qualidade para nos satisfazer.
Valeu em todos os aspectos e iremos voltar mais vezes.
