Praia da Cordoama

Cliff-ringed wild beach · Vila do Bispo (Costa Vicentina)

Below the 100-metre cliffs of the Vila do Bispo coast, Cordoama and its neighbour Castelejo form the Costa Vicentina’s most dramatic amphitheatre — raw cliffs striped by schist, a broad wild sand and a dirt track in that keeps the crowd to surfers and those who like the road less paved.

Good to know

• Twin beaches: Cordoama and Castelejo
• Dirt access track — part of the charm
• Dramatic schist-striped cliffs
