Praia de Luz

In addition to beautiful and unspoiled beaches, the area around Praia de Luz offers many peaceful treasures in its old churches and fortress shells. In nearby Vila do Bispo, the parish church from the 18th century features a beautifully preserved interior that can only be viewed when services are in session.

The beaches at nearby Burgau and Salema are also worth visiting, and Blue Ocean Divers provides scuba lessons and dives to interesting underwater locations. Windsurfing equipment is also available for rent on area beaches.
