Seixal's black-sand beach is a stunner, so much so that it was declared Europe's third best beach in 2022 in the European Best Destinations (Porto Santo came top – not bad for an archipelago not known for its beaches!). Unfurl your towel on sand a shade of black you never knew existed and watch the waves roll in against a backdrop of high cliffs.
Students of the local surf school often provide comic entertainment.
