🏝️ Beach

Praia do Penedo

The south-eastern tip of the great beach, right next to Porto de Abrigo, Porto Santo's harbour. Fine, flat sand and a peaceful atmosphere a short walk from the centre. Toilets, parking inside the harbour, a first-aid post and a few catering services; the tourist board notes lifeguards in season. Water at 24–25 °C in summer. A designated bathing water from 1 June to 30 September 2026, with no surveillance guaranteed by the national order: check the flags before going in.
