Name: The beach is not easily accessible due to the abundance of rocks and seaweed. However, it is an excellent spot for diving and snorkeling with a mask. A small stream runs alongside the sandy shore. There is a trail that leads from Praia da Ganxuma and Praia da Serraria, although it is not very well marked.

Praia da Caveira

The beach is not easily accessible due to the abundance of rocks and seaweed. However, it is an excellent spot for diving and snorkeling with a mask. A small stream runs alongside the sandy shore. There is a trail that leads from Praia da Ganxuma and Praia da Serraria, although it is not very well marked.

This beach is nice, it's not very big and the water is usually calm. However, it can get a bit busier when boats stop at the kiosk for refreshments.

Praia das Enchovas

10 Landon Pallas

While not the most beautiful beach, Bonete Beach boasts an incredible waterfall that cascades into the sea and a refreshing natural pool. The beach is quite secluded, lacking any amenities, so it's best to bring your own food and water. Accessing the beach involves a 3km trail that takes around an hour to traverse. The trail is relatively easy, but it does have some steep climbs and can be slippery at times.
