The beach is quite delightful, with a restaurant café and a cave walk that leads to the adjacent beach. Additionally, it's worth noting that the sand has a brown hue.

The beach is small, but the stretch of sand is decent. What makes it stand out is its unique access, either by sea or down the slopes. Additionally, the sand is brown in color.

The beach may be petite in size, but its secluded location adds to its charm. While accessing it may require some effort, the reward is worth it. When the sea is calm and the tide is low, a delightful stroll from Cova Redonda beach to Cavalos beach is possible. It's a perfect spot for those seeking a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of the city.

The beach near Praia da Cova Redonda is just a quick swim away, especially during low tide. Additionally, it's worth noting that the sand on this beach is brown.
