Nos anos 80, a praia tinha coqueiros e areia preta, sendo muito frequentada e utilizada por surfistas e praticantes de bodyboard. No entanto, atualmente está abandonada e poluída, não sendo recomendada para banho. Além de estar localizada próxima ao porto, a praia tem ligação direta com as águas "tratadas" da empresa Cavibel e outras redes de esgoto a céu aberto.
With the construction of resorts, the beach will surely improve, but as of now, it presents a rather gloomy sight.
We've been to many beaches, but this one was the best, even compared to Tarrafal. The sand is lovely and the beach stretches far. It can get quite windy and you may encounter shells poking your feet, so be sure to wear sandals and find a spot shielded from the wind!
The beach isn't very pleasant, as it's quite small and the waves are quite large. However, if you're looking for a beautiful beach on this island, I highly recommend Tarrafal beach! You won't be disappointed! 😍
