Great waves. Popular for windsurfers owing to its exposure to westerly winds, in summer it is supervised by experienced lifeguards as the currents can pose some danger to inexperienced swimmers. Rocks in the water. Strong currents, especially close to the great big rock in the middle of the beach. Many surfers. When you loose more than 300m space, you will end up at the cliffs. Waves can be up to 6m high.
Located on the southwest tip of Portugal, here you will find Sagres and to its west side Tonel. Accessible by turning right at the first roundabout in Sagres and following the road to Cape St. Vincent.
