Directions

Escape to one of Madeira's rare treasures, a beautiful golden sand beach tucked away on the sunniest part of the island. The sand here was imported, creating a perfect spot for a relaxing day. You'll find the waters are incredibly calm and safe for swimming, thanks to the protective breakwaters, making it an ideal location for families. Everything you need is right here, with charming seaside bars, restaurants, and water sports rentals just a few steps from your towel.
