Beach Time! - #5 on explore

This golden hour shot was taken at Praia da Adraga.

Well known for its clean water and vast expanse of sand, Adraga Beach (“Praia da Adraga”) is one of the most beautiful beaches in the Lisbon area. It is located near the village of Almoçageme, about 30 kms from Lisbon and 14km from Sintra.

 

It is a fairly wild spot being located just a few kilometres north of Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point on mainland Europe. Formations of jagged rocks brood just offshore and the beach itself is home to some caves and tunnels resulting from erosion and the sea action.
