About the beach

A small urban sandy beach on the bay of Angra do Heroísmo, inside the UNESCO-listed historic centre and next to the marina. The sea is calm, with a sandy, gently shelving seabed, making it suitable for families with children. It has changing rooms, a foot wash and some fixed sunshades; the council provides an amphibious wheelchair on request.
