Beach description
Senhora da Rocha is a popular holiday destination among both locals and tourists. A proof of the cleanliness and safety of this beach is the Blue Flag awarded to it. The beach is about 150 meters long and about 60 meters wide. The cliffs on the borders of Senora da Rocha represent a natural protection from the wind and create the effect of a secluded bay. The entire space for relaxation by the water is clean fine sand, which smoothly turns into the ocean floor. This beach is popular with many tourists (including families with small children), as it is not only spacious, but also well-maintained.
When is it better to go
The beach season in Portugal lasts from the beginning of June until September, when the air temperature reaches +30°C and the water temperature - +19°C. It should be remembered that the Atlantic Ocean does not warm up well and cools quickly, lovers of a more comfortable temperature can swim in natural stone pools, which are quite numerous on the coast.
