What to do ? | Manta Rota

Enjoy and take a dive in Praia da Manta Rota and Praia da Lota

This is a wide beach with attractive waters, integrated in the village of Manta Rota, appearing in the continuity of the sandy barrier that delimits the lagoon system of the Ria Formosa to the east.

Next to a large square with lounge areas, shopping facilities, a children's playground, a market and an arts centre, this area offers a lot of entertainment, especially in summer, and provides access to several points of the beach.

The network of raised passages that starts from the square invites you to walk through the plants, where they are aromatic like the “pétua-das-areias” and shrubs like “onobranco” in the sea front, where the reverse and the sea thistle dominate. Although very popular, this beach offers quiet corners, especially at the sandy extremities.
