To get to this beach, you have to descend a long stairs. This makes the beach difficult to access for elderly people or less mobile people. However, once you arrive downstairs, you will see the true beauty of this beach. Praia do Camilo actually consists of two beaches, that are connected through an artificial tunnel. From the top of the cliffs, you have a great view over the beach and the bay of Lagos. Notice that some of the rocks have peculiar shapes.The sea here is exceptionally clean. The water has a nice colour and is almost transparent. This makes Praia do Camilo also a great beach for snorkeling. You will be able to see several fishes when snorkeling. The sea is calm and the water is not too cold.

Praia do Camilo is relatively small. Especially in the summer it can get very crowded on this beach. Make sure to visit this beach during low tide, otherwise there might be a lack of space.
