The popular main beach just below the old town, with a scenic clifftop boulevard and some of the best sunsets in Ericeira.
Also known as Praia da Baleia, this is the central beach most visitors reach first, a short walk down from the old town and the Vila Galé hotel. Golden sand, easy access and a lively summer atmosphere make it a favourite.
The clifftop boulevard above is the place to be at sunset, with benches, kiosks and a view that earns its reputation. Surfers share the bay with swimmers, so pick your spot on the sand accordingly.
