Located a few kilometers north of Vila Nova de Milfontes, Malhão Beach (South) is situated within the protected area of the Southwest Alentejo and Vicentine Coast Natural Park. It is surrounded by the characteristic landscape of this coast, with cliffs that frame the sandy beach and contribute to its more isolated environment.
This beach stands out for its natural and wild character, far from urban bustle. It features an extensive stretch of fine, light sand, which harmoniously connects to a preserved dune system. The base of the cliffs contributes to the secluded atmosphere of the place.
The Atlantic waters at Malhão Beach (South) are known for their waves. This characteristic makes the spot particularly appealing for sports such as surf and bodyboard, offering conditions for those seeking these activities in the sea.
To reach the extensive sandy beach, there are access structures that facilitate the descent. A walkway and a wooden staircase are integrated into the dune and cliff landscape, providing an organized path to the beach.
Far from urban centers, Malhão Beach (South) invites tranquility and direct contact with nature. It is a refuge for those seeking peace and a more isolated environment on the coast. Given its extension and environment, nudism is tolerated here in the northern part of the sandy beach.
