along with
praia
brava and
praia
do alentejo, praia do golfinho (beach of the
dolphin) is located
inside a
brazilian navy area, and access is possible only via special
permit.
this is a particularly beautiful beach, with
pristine white sands and rich vegetation behind it.
perhaps part of the reason why this beach is
still pristine is the fact that, along with several other
beaches on the island, it was declared a military area as
of 1946 - limiting general and random access.
