What will you discover on this trail

Praia da Tartaruga (Turtle Beach)

Our starting point is the Turtle beach (praia da Tartaruga), one of the most known and famous beaches of the peninsula because of the warmer (or less icy!) waters and indicated for children for not having waves. It is also a point for the practice of snorkeling because of the rich marine life.

Praia das Virgens (Virgens Beach)

Gruta da Tartaruga (Turtle Cave)

The crack in the rock leads to a narrow cave, being accessed by one person at a time. The entrance of light and the internal formations allow to make surprising registers.

Praia dos Amores (Amores Beach)

Amores Beach the access to the beach is made by trail, in more closed forest, starting from the Virgens beach. After a climb, the trail descends towards the sea, revealing a panoramic view of the beach and the Ugly Island, just ahead.
