Praia do Mar de Lira is a great spot for those looking for a peaceful and secluded area. There are no annoyances from nearby beach bars, and the water is warm and inviting. The beach also has white sand, and there are plenty of recreational activities and hiking trails nearby. Unfortunately, there is no lifeguard on duty, so visitors must be extra cautious.

This place is divided into different coves, protected by rocks. There's a long stretch of sand and a walkway leading to the port. It's very nice, though it can have algae. There's a shower, footbath, parking and picnic area nearby, as well as a bar. There's no lifeguard on duty, but the water is usually around 15° Celsius. What's more, it's easy to access, so you don't have to worry about any hassle.

The beach was quite rugged, with plenty of seaweed and rocks. The water was murky and not at all inviting for swimming. We took our child along but there was no way he was getting into the water. Fortunately, there were picnic areas in the nearby forest with an incredible kids' playground. If you're looking for a place to eat, this beach is a good option, but don't expect to take a dip.
