Porto e Norte

While the sea in the north is cool and rough, the

water is calmer and warmer in the south. All

along the coast, you can find vast expanses ofsand ideal for long walks, small sheltered coves,

beautiful rock formations by the waters edge

and flame-coloured cliffs.

The idyllic nine-kilometre-long beach at Porto

Santo, in the archipelago of Madeira is a clear

invitation to linger and sunbathe after a dip in

the sea. In the Azores, the dark-coloured sand of

the beaches confirms the islands volcanic origin.

Most of Portugals beaches have the

right to display a Blue Flag, which

guarantees the quality of the sand,

water, services and support facilities

to be found at the site.
