Praia do Monte Verde Concerts

Mesmerizing waves seen here, probably not great for swimming, but very intriguing to watch from the beach. Easy to get to & has parking. Only downside side, A lot of seaweed and garbage were further up the beach.

The beach is beautiful and the waves are amazing. Perfect place to learn how to surf or for the intermediate surfer. However, sewer water is being led directly from the town into the ocean and contact with the water or swimming is not advised (don’t know if this is always the case, but for now it is). When surfing or swimming here it’s on your own risk, but you can get pretty ill. Also the smell of sewer is all around which is sad because it’s such a pretty place

Best beach experience on the island. Big waves, but no problems with currents, rocks or anything. Lots and lots of space both in the water and on the beach. Felt completely safe. The was lifeguards on duty (end of Juli). We were a family of 4 with kids age 12 and 17 and we are all used to water and some waves. The beach might not be for “beginners” and the weather will definitly affect the experience. We only left the water when we got exhausted. :-)

Nice beach, but very strong waves.

Perfect beach for surfing. Very little people
