This beach is located on the coastal area of the municipality of Lagoa, part of the parish of Porches, in the Algarve region. It is set within a coastal area characterized by its typical rock formations.
Praia da Ponta da Adega (East) is distinguished by its small size and the amount of sand, which is quite scarce and only becomes visible at low tide. The configuration of the cove where it is located, which is quite narrow, provides natural protection from the wind.
A notable aspect of this beach is the presence of a cave in the cliff located to the east. This natural feature contributes to the landscape setting of the location.
Due to its geographical characteristics, access to this beach is solely by sea. This particularity gives it a more isolated and tranquil environment compared to beaches with land access.
The location is part of an area that benefits from protected status, which helps preserve its natural characteristics. The waters in this area are classified as bathing waters, indicating suitable conditions for swimming.
