Praia da Cordoama
Stunning beach and great for surfing. There's a carpark and beach bar for food and drinks.
Amazing beach. This is the northern stretch of the Castelejo/ Cordoama/ Barriga beaches (which all link up at low tide). This one is usually the quietest as it's just a track to get there and there's no beach bar.
