About the beach

A small beach at Caramujeira, on the edge of Porches, about 1 km east of Praia da Marinha. It is reached along a narrow, winding road through scrub and carob trees, the same road that serves Barranquinho and Malhada do Baraço beaches. A rocky outcrop splits the sand, creating sheltered corners and natural rock pools, and the sea has carved caves into the base of the cliffs. It is a designated swimming beach with a lifeguard in the bathing season and shares its bathing water with Praia da Marinha. Water quality was rated Excellent in 2025.
