Praia
D'el Rey, Peniche and Baleal beaches
The local Praia Del Rey
beach stretches for miles in both directions from the resort
and
is excellent
for
sunbathing,
walking
and surfing. It's a short walk from most of our properties
and there are two parking areas for beach access. The local
beach is patrolled during the peak season and a lifeguard is
based at the beach access beneath the
Marriott Hotel and Vila da Praia. Swimmers and surfers not
used to the awesome Atlantic surf should observe the Safe and
Danger
flags.
There
is an unmade road from Praia D'El Rey all the way to two excellent
beaches Baleal. The drive takes about fifteen minutes and includes
three more surfing beaches. The huge bay at Peniche and Supertubos
is on the other side of the Peniche peninsular. For most weeks
of
the year surfers
from Portugal and all over Europe find their way to these
beaches.
