Praia da Maiata

This beach is absolutely lovely, with a predominantly sandy terrain.

Piscina do Porto da Cruz

Unfortunately, I was unable to indulge in the beach experience due to the tumultuous weather conditions. However, the panoramic vistas were absolutely breathtaking and left me in awe.

Alagoa beach
8 Larissa Novikova.

This beach is lovely and has a comfortable, intimate feel with its black sand. Additionally, there aren't many tourists around.
