Vigia Beach

Vigia Beach is a stunning location, known for its breathtaking sunsets. This beach offers a unique sense of isolation, with very few people around, making it an ideal spot for those seeking solitude. The beach is characterized by its long stretch of sand, which is often unattended. However, this does not detract from its beauty, but rather adds to the sensation of being in a wild and untouched place. The natural characteristics of Vigia Beach include its dunes and the rough sea. The dunes provide a vantage point for viewing the beach and its surroundings, while the rough sea adds to the wild and untamed feel of the place. It is worth noting that the beach is also a site where trash, particularly plastic bottles and fishery waste, is collected by volunteers. Getting to Vigia Beach involves a drive along a 5 km gravel road. The road is unmade and can be a bit rough, but it is not treacherous. After the drive, there is a short climb to the top of the dunes. Despite the somewhat challenging access, the beauty and tranquility of Vigia Beach make the journey worthwhile.
