Tourist points
Located on Culatra Island, the beach owes its name to the lighthouse that lies in its extreme west, in Barra Nova, near Cape St. Maria. When you arrive at the pier you will find that the urban and tourist occupation is intense, but the sand is long and, to the east, the beach is gradually becoming quieter. The great pier of the bar is used by diving schools for their lessons, by underwater hunters and also for sport fishing.
About 1.5 km to the east comes Praia dos Hangares, accessible by boat or walking from the Lighthouse. There is still an old bunker and a lot of barbed wire, legacies of the time when seaplanes of the Navy anchored on the island. There is a small village, essentially of summer, facing the ria. The dune cord is huge, hot and dry; the beach is very quiet.
