Ponta da Calheta Beach is a picturesque spot located at the southern tip of Porto Santo Island. Unlike the main 9-kilometer stretch of golden sands, Ponta da Calheta offers a more secluded and tranquil environment, characterized by a blend of sandy shores and rocky formations.

This beach is connected to the main beach, allowing visitors to enjoy a continuous shoreline experience. It’s an ideal location for those seeking a peaceful retreat away from the more frequented areas. The best time to visit Ponta da Calheta is during the late afternoon, as it provides a serene setting to watch the sunset over the Atlantic Ocean.

Ponta da Calheta is recommended for travelers who appreciate natural beauty and tranquility. Its unique landscape, combining sand and rocks, offers a different experience compared to the main beach, making it a must-visit for those exploring Porto Santo.
