About
At only 100 feet wide, this small beach is a gem below the picturesque village of Azenhas do Mar—it's so small that it sometimes even disappears at high tide! It has a man-made ocean pool, that refills with seawater as the tide comes in. It’s also home to a popular fish restaurant just above the pool, where the lifeguards keep a lookout during the busier summer months. There are also a couple of viewpoints where you can get great views of the beach and the dramatic cliffs that surround it. Tours of Sintra often make a stop here for photos, too. – Tripadvisor
