Largo da Praia da Aguda, 2705, São João das Lampas
Been here?
A daytime parking area on asphalt with a beautiful ocean view from the cliffs. The surface is very sloped, and the route down to the beach is badly damaged, with broken steps, missing railings and unsafe sections. Overnight visitors have previously been sent away by police, so this is better used for a daytime stop.

The parking lot is okay but very sloped. The path down to the beach was badly damaged and dangerous. At the cliff edge, steps have collapsed, railings have broken, and parts are completely unpaved or totally destroyed. For a break at the top, the parking lot has a great view. The beach is less attractive. I would not come back.
No police. Safe, quiet, spectacular views and opportunities for walks. Unfortunately, the stairs to the beach are closed. I don't understand why overnight stays are not allowed. There is no prohibition sign anywhere.
Police came in the morning and sent everyone away. To be avoided.
Great place to stay for the night, nice and calm with a great view. We felt safe here, there were more 5 campervans staying around. The parking is sloppy and doesn’t have places for bigger motorhomes (+6m), but at the road aside you can find good places to stay. The beach is really nice, with low tide you can walk from Praia da Aguda to Praia do Magoito (1.6km).
Very steep parking lot. The dirt road continuing from here is not difficult or dangerous, and I advise finding a spot there.
Sloping parking lot, with a few partygoers at night, close to the beach, lots of wind and cool air. Magnificent view! Bins available. Warning: do not park on the nearby dunes; the vehicle gets stuck.
Very nice view and lovely beach. No trouble staying overnight, and there was enough space.
Very quiet at night. A few spots on the dirt road, otherwise some spaces in the parking lot are practically flat. Surfer spot, so expect some activity in the morning.
Great ocean view. People were friendly. You can go to the beach, which is beautiful. There was enough space for our large camper, 2.5 m wide.
Very quiet place on the cliffs, there are a few places for vans a bit down the road from the parking. The water spring is very much down the stairs towards the beach and therefore not suitable for refilling water. Beautiful wild beach.
