Hiking
Praia da Viola is a narrow, quiet beach of coarse sand and pebbles, framed by a rocky cliff with several waterfalls. When crossing the beach, it is worth taking a detour to the mouth of the Salto river, where you can admire a particularly beautiful waterfall. To return to the main path, simply take the stairs and pass the ruins of the Viola watermills.
