If you come by car, is well advised to leave the car for the walk and also for the beach visit. In good weather, it is difficult to find a parking space around Moinhos, especially after lunchtime.

Hiking

There is a large car park hidden around the corner, which is a good starting point for hikes or for the beach. This means you don't have to park on the side of the road on streets that are already far too narrow.
