The beach is excellent and secluded, with the added bonus of golden fine sand. Nudism is allowed on this beach.

Praia dos Canudos is perfect for naturists and dog owners alike. The sand is golden and fine, and although access may be a bit challenging, it's well worth the effort for those seeking a secluded and peaceful spot to enjoy the sun and sea.

The stunning Praia dos Carnudos has unfortunately been inaccessible for over 60 years due to the selfish actions of the donkey's owner who blocked all access. Despite the lack of intervention from the parish council and City Council, this beach remains a natural wonder that deserves to be experienced. It's rumored that the owner of the donkey even dines with the Camara, adding to the mystique of this hidden gem.
