Beach parking, hazardous access track
7 Lugar Insuas, 15998, Porto do Son
Been here?
This small dirt clearing has spectacular views and direct access to a naturist beach beside Castro de Baroña. The access track is badly potholed, can wash out and become impassable, and is unsuitable for large or low vehicles. Google Maps does not lead directly there, so the tarmac road may be the safer place to stop and inspect the track first.

Access on dirt track liable to being washed out and impassable past a certain point Best to park on the tarmac road and walk up the track to check. Good luck
Small dirt clearing with spectacular views. Direct access to the naturist beach beside Castro de Baroña. The access is difficult, and I do not recommend it for large vans or low vehicles because of the large potholes, but it is worth it!
Looks like a sick spot. I found the access but was unable to pass it. Got most of the way but ended up on a gravel slope with wheels spinning. Tried 4 times but decided to abort the mission! (MK3 caddy maxi with all season tyres, stock suspension. I turned traction control off etc, decided wasn’t worth it for me!)
Spectacular place; it is worth trying to find it. A lovely spot to wake up and have breakfast with magnificent views.
We spent over an hour trying to find it and couldn’t find it. There are no roads to use on a map and no clear directions on the info or any comments. Can someone leave clear step by step directions with landmarks so people can actually find it
A superb spot with views over several beaches and coves. Access by van is not particularly difficult, via a dirt track. I think large vehicles should avoid it. The best way to find it is with Google Earth, or take the road to Praia do Dique and turn right among the pine trees after the houses.
Spectacular place for spending the day and sleeping. Access is difficult for large vans. It is better to use Google Earth for guidance and ask locals. Quite windy.
I do not recommend it; it is very difficult to find and the road is quite challenging. In my Opel Vivaro I had to turn around after almost an hour of searching.
