GALAPINHOS BEACH

Galapinhos Beach is at the seaside of Arrábida. It was considered the “Best Beach of Europe” in 2017, in accordance with the votes received in the European Best Destinations portal. It is a calm beach with a tranquil sea, where it is possible to observe marine species, snorkel and scuba dive.

Contrary to what happens in Albarquel or even Figueirinha, it is a zone with bad accesses and not much parking space. The access is usually done by walking, through considerably inclined trails which are not advisable for reduced mobility people.
