Hiking

Around Porto Covo there are a number of beautiful bays with the finest sandy beach. This is the largest and the only one with supervision and a bar. If you want it a little quieter, you should go 2-3 books further.

Hiking

Praia Grande, as hinted by the name, is the biggest beach in Porto Covo. It’s among the 41 beaches in the Alentejo coast awarded with the Blue Flag in 2023. It has a large car park, toilets, and a small beach bar/restaurant. Being somewhat less sheltered than the other beaches, the sea can be quite choppy depending on the weather conditions, so it’s great for surfing and body-boarding. But we’ve been to Praia Grande on several occasions where the sea was very smooth.

A very nice and not overcrowded stretch of beach
