The Beach
Golden sand beach that appears at the mouth of one of the most beautiful valleys in the region, with a small but wide sand, forming a small dune field to the west and developing towards the interior of the ravine, where there is rolled pebble. At the ends of the beach, there are limestone cliffs of light tones.

The beach provides delicious walks along the slope of its eastern slope. It is located at the mouth of two expressive valleys, or ravines, a particularity that gives it its name. It is part of the Southwest Alentejo and Costa Vicentina Natural Park. The beach is very popular with surfers and caravans.

It has road access, partially on dirt, with about 5 km in length, from the village of Raposeira (EN 125).
