Porta do Mos beach is situated between Luz and Lagos, flanked by cliffs which usually give shelter and shade on one side or the other. There is a large parking area and beach access is easy. There is a lovely walk along the cliffs from here to the town of Luz, but not for small children as the cliffs can be dangerous. The walk is about 5 km and if you are tired you can always take a bus or taxi back to the beach.
