A nice little beach right next to the harbor. It can be reached via a long flight of stairs. When we were there it was too cold to take a bath. Maybe this was the fault that the beach was deserted.

The Prainha bathing area is located in Angra Bay and is part of the historic center of the World Heritage city of Angra. The main access is next to the Angra Marina commercial area and the access to the protective jetty. Access to the beach is possible via a staircase that runs along the wall that delimits it. Due to its proximity to hotels and being the only bathing area in the municipality with sand, it is a very popular place, ideal for families with children who always enjoy building in the sand and playing other games. The calm sea and the gentle slope of the underwater bottom allow even people with the greatest difficulties to enjoy a refreshing dip in the sea. There are several places nearby where you can buy a cool drink or even have something to eat.

Here you can jump into the cool wet after running. Guarded, toilets are next door.
