02 Praia da Luz – Salema Beach

Another short leg stretcher, another picture perfect day full of fantastic coastal views. It’s really a constant wow experience. Fucking amazing.

Salema beach is just a couple of houses and some eateries / bars. Unfortunately, all the candidates for decent vegetarian or vegan food were closed, so we ate at one of the few open restaurants, but it was nothing to write home about. A caprese salad that would get you executed immediately in Italy. 😂 Nevermind, I had some emergency nuts and chocolate rations, so all good. And the Cafe at the supermercado does good coffee and pastries, we had lunch and breakfast there. Otherwise, just a convenient stopover on the way to Sagres, forget about the village, enjoy the fantastic beach. ☀ The only accommodation I could find was an Airbnb apartment which was ok, but overpriced.

The walk itself was easy going, plenty of time to admire the coast!
