View of the cliffs in the Área Protegida da Costa Sul e Sudoeste

Highlight • Viewpoint

At least good trekking shoes are recommended on this way. The way is not very well maintained. Therefore, long trousers are recommended for those who do not like running "bare" legs through tall grass and "jungle" landscapes

Fajã de Lopo Vaz Beach

Highlight • Beach

Fajã de Lopo Vaz is a charming place at the end of the trail of the same name. It is worth mentioning that at this point it is possible to continue the race, however it is important to pay attention to the tide and waves, which can make the return dangerous.

Fajã de Lopo Vaz — Black Sand Beach

Highlight • Beach

Awesome hike. Great view over the ocean from the cliffs. Take care of the tides when trying to make it a round trip along the beach.

Rocky Beach Trail – Costa Sul e Sudoeste Protected Area

Highlight • Beach

Baden is not advisable. If you still want to try it, you should have a good view of the surf and try further ahead at the "Sand" beach section. In heavy seas and waves, one must expect that the surf swirls with stones, which can be very painful.
