Beach 19

Olá boas somos um casal h X m nunca fomos a esta praia gostaríamos muito ir somos ambos bi eu e minha esposa alguém sabe podemos ir os 2 lá curtimos

Hi I am new in Portugal and like to spend some time on the beach with nice friends. I like to drink and have a chat ut also for protecting my back with sunscreen. I live a 20min drive away so easy to come over in the coming weeks when the sun is hot. I am open for many suggestions.

It's too far from Lisbon. The whole travel took me 5h!!! 3h to get to and almost 2h to come back. If you don't have a car it can be a nightmare (metro + train +uber + walk) The beach itself is nice (big and proper sandy) but the water is freezing cold (it is ocean, not sea) The cruising place is full of 60+yo - I would say 90%. Not worth the travel.

It's a great place! Sadly, I went to the beach on a January Weekend (Saturday). Although it was hot enough for me (13 Celsius is not hot, but is hardly freezing), the rest of Lisbon decided it was not. I was left alone for most of my time, other than a straight couple wearing layers of coats wandering around a few times. Still, it's an amazing place. I got to be naked all the time without being bothered, got a few dives, did some yoga, and even got a nice rain to cheer the spirit up. I gave a quick shot on the bushes but nobody showed up. (I'm sure it was because of rain, cold, and/or January). I had to walk to the beach nearby (Telha, I believe) to find a Uber - and still took good 15 minutes to arrive. Would def. recommend another period if you want to cruise or just have some people around you. But January is also great. I had a marvelous time nevertheless the existence of other humans.

It is magnificent. I bring a bag and bring my empty plastic bottles and orange peel back to the bins in the car park. For men who have sex with men it is pretty disgusting to find that while they act responsibly by using condoms they fail to pick the used condom, tissue and package. Point is would you leave a used condom on the floor of your bedroom and think that's OK?

Summer time, it is packed with gay men. Half of them fully naked, sun tanned. A lot of action in the bushes. You can find young men, older men, bears, well...everything. The beach itself is nice, clean and safe. Some weirdos too, but that you find everywhere. In wintertime there is also a lot of action. Best gay beach I've visited so far.

Revisited around 27 august 2015. Watch out for your valuables in the car park - my vehicle was one of several broken into - really hide anything of value or take it with you. According to the police there is little violence against persons but a lot of theft/car crime which has seen a huge increase this year. The police now regularly patrol on horseback mainly along the railway track. Beach becoming more mixed; a lot less naturist. Many gay couples are now covering up and rather oddly put on swimming costumes to go swimming. Some cruising when it gets dark but usually bi-locals looking for extra-marital fun. The hidden discrete areas are as filthy as ever - really bad and utterly disgusting. Compared to other beaches listed in the Algave; this one has the highest frequency - over a hundred compared to a dozen or so seen on the most popular beaches elsewhere. The train operates in August, and anyway it's a pleasant 20-minute stroll along the beach from the car park. Internet access is available in nearby Fonte de Telha which is 3 km from the end of the rough beach road. There is also a lovely little market there too, as well as restaurants; and it appears to be much classier than Caparica. This would be a wonderful place if it wasn't for the disgusting practice of people using the dunes and shrubbery as a toilet and rubbish disposal area.

Visited in September 2014. Train service doesn't run. The cruising area is absolutely filthy with used condoms and soiled tissues everywhere. It's unhygienic, filthy, and a disgrace. It's quite simple; just pick up your mess, put it in a plastic bag and drop it in the bins provided in the car park. This is a beautiful area and a protected wildlife zone so why spoil it? Sooner or later people will act and close this area off. This is a poor area of Europe and the local government does it's best to provide bins for refuse. I spent one morning trying to clean the litter from the car park - about 25 kilos of it. Does the gay community have no Pride in respecting nature and wildlife??? It's there for us to enjoy. so please, please, take care of it, pick up your mess and dispose of it thoughtfully. Bring a small plastic bag with you; don't just chuck your used stuff into the bushes, then dispose of it responsibly. Looking after this world is everybody's responsibility regardless of gender and sex issues.
