This well-marked hiking trail between Praia de Marinha and Praia de Vale Centeaes is popular for its breathtaking views and the beautiful rock formations that hang over the water. The path is easy for anyone with a reasonable level of fitness, although there is some scrambling here and there. You can start the walk at different points, but a nice starting point is Praia Marinha. It is best to go to the equally breathtaking caves by boat (or if you are a very good swimmer)
