Closed beach parking, inaccessible

A truly beautiful place, but in reality it no longer exists. The ocean has taken about 50 meters, and the café is gone. The parking area is blocked, and you cannot drive all the way to the ocean. Be careful.✦Translating

We saw suspicious people coming and going, but the view from the van was so beautiful that nothing would have made us leave our spot. Too many people to set out a table and chairs, but there are lovely walks through the pine forest for the dog, a perfect beach, and a nice little bar. However, it is somewhat noisy and very busy; earplugs are essential.✦Translating

Beautiful place on the beach, quiet. In summer people arrive from 9 a.m. to enjoy the beach. There is a bar and beach showers.✦Translating

Beautiful view, directly by the sea. Indeed, quite a few strange people coming and going, but nobody bothered us.✦Translating

A few beautiful spaces with a sea view. It seems quiet and remote, but it is a meeting place and lone men stare insistently into the van. I only stayed to eat and then left.✦Translating

The place is great during the day; there are showers and bins. Just before nightfall we had to leave because helicopters were flying frequently and very low, making a lot of noise. I do not know whether this happens every day or whether we were simply unlucky; other reviews do not mention it as a problem.✦Translating

We love this place. You can see the see inside your van! And the beach it’s my favorite in north of portugal. We live in Oporto (near by) and normally at the weekends we go to this place with our van ☺️ it’s very safe and have one bar the with wc and showers

This was the only place with other vans so we stayed since we’ve been driving for hours. There are many creepy single man in cars driving around and watching you. Usually always in pairs. A few of them got out of the car, but mostly they were just sitting there, watching. This happens throughout all the area. It is UNSAFE to stay here, if you have an option just drive a bit further or stop before.

Quiet place with plenty of space. In summer it is quite busy with campers and motorhomes.✦Translating

Beautiful beach. Arrive after 6 p.m. to find a space, as the beach is very busy. Bar beside the beach, toilets, and shower.✦Translating

Great spot, with a beautiful view. But only during the day, we got fined 120€ early this morning after sleeping over night. No services at this time of the year.

Beautiful place. Unfortunately, the law apparently changed in 2021, and sleeping in your car has been prohibited since then. As a result, five friendly police officers came to the door at 6:30 a.m. and issued a €120 fine.✦Translating

Wonderful place. Plenty of room for motorhomes and vans. Many locals come and go during the day, but it is very pleasant. Watch out for the wind!✦Translating

Beautiful spot by the beach. Many locals come and go, especially at weekends. At the beginning of May there was plenty of room for campers.✦Translating

Beautiful place. Very quiet. Please keep it clean and leave space for the locals.✦Translating

Wonderful place to enjoy the sun, sea and nature! No facilities, but they are not needed.✦Translating

A beautiful spot without water or waste facilities, but we did not feel comfortable here because motorhomes were parked right at the front and blocked the path to the beach. It was not suitable for us; please leave room for the locals…✦Translating

Beautiful and safe spot above the beach, without services, with fantastic sunsets included. The toilets were still closed, but there is a small town with restaurants 2 km away, reachable by walking right along the beach.✦Translating

Great little spot.

Really a great place. It is also busy during the day on weekdays, but if you park the vans properly, there is room. If necessary, there is also space farther ahead by the road.✦Translating

The spot is smaller than it used to be because part of the cliff broke off. So only 1/3 of the spots are left. Quiet. There are big holes on the way and also on the parking space. The ones on the parking space are filled with water after the rain. So be careful where you park.

Great spot. Level parking areas, lots of beach and space. Very busy at weekends. You should park so that you do not take up three or four spaces! After all, we are guests here!✦Translating

Nice parking area between pine forest and ocean.✦Translating

Beautiful spot. Pleasant in the afternoon with the surfers around. Facilities closed. In the evening and at night, despite extreme rain, there was a lot of traffic coming and going. Often the same people, apparently looking for something. We had the feeling that drugs were being dealt. Unpleasant for us. We left immediately the next day. A bit of a shame, considering the location. We would not return.✦Translating

Beautiful spot! There was a lot of standing water from the rain in recent days. The view is breathtaking. The facilities are closed. Quiet place, with some traffic coming and going at night. Many surfers and fishermen. Recommended for two or three nights. The police had no problem with it and came to enjoy the view. Definitely recommended!✦Translating

We stayed here for one night. Overall very quiet, although cars occasionally pass during the night and wake you up. They are fishermen who want to catch fish. Perfectly fine for one or two nights!

Lovely spot. Frequented by quite a few surfers. Quiet lovely sunset but mist back in the morning

NOT for vehicles over 3.5 tonnes. At the beginning of the road to the spot there is a sign prohibiting heavy vehicles. The Guardia Civil just very kindly pointed out to us that we were not actually allowed to be here, although camping was not a problem. Great spot directly behind the dunes and an unbelievably beautiful beach.

We stayed here for one night and it worked very well. Unfortunately, the bar was closed, perhaps because the weather was not very good. But you can stand beautifully among the pines directly by the sea.

We stayed for two nights, parking 200 m from the beach along the road. No services, but it is quiet.

A beautiful spot, quiet at night. Cars come and go throughout the day. The spot was well occupied by campers at night, so you feel safe. Beautiful, long sandy beach. Wonderful beach shower. The GNR came by to check that everything was in order. Please take your rubbish with you or put it in the bin. :-)
