Praia da Mareta, Beach in Sagres, Portugal.
The 800-meter sandy shoreline extends between limestone cliffs, with Cape St. Vincent marking the western end of this protected bay.
The beach stands near the location where Portuguese maritime explorers trained and prepared for their ocean voyages during the 15th century.
Local fishermen continue their traditions by launching boats from this beach, bringing fresh catches to the nearby restaurants specializing in Atlantic seafood.
The beach offers parking facilities, restrooms, lifeguard services during summer months, and multiple access points through wooden walkways from Sagres town.
Natural caves within the limestone formations create underwater passages, making this location a center for diving expeditions and marine life observation.
