About Praia da Vigia

This beach is so pretty that is totally worth it! It's around 2.91km in length, which is medium, and there are no shades. It is never crowded here. There are no amenities so bring what you need and please don't leave anything behind. The views are amazing and the weather is usually nice. Be aware that bringing dogs is not allowed. This beach is also known as Vigia Beach.

There are no lifeguards on duty at the beach, so keep that in mind, but if you’re looking for somewhere quiet to hang out, Praia da Vigia is a great place.
