Ponta do Sol beach

Ponta do Sol beach in the the same named town of Madeira island. The name in English means "Sunny place".

Beach description

Ponta do Sol is a warmest place on the island. Such weather conditions are explained by the good location of the resort: it's located in a low place, protected from all winds by high cliffs. The pebble shore collects lovers of sunbathing and swimming. Strong waves are held back by the breakwater.

Modern facilities such as library, bar, lifeguard create comfort and allow to enjoy the safe holiday. Tourists can eat in one of the beach restaurants. Moreover, not far from the beach there are several comfortable hotels that can accept all guests.

When is it better to go

The beach season in Portugal lasts from the beginning of June until September, when the air temperature reaches +30°C and the water temperature - +19°C. It should be remembered that the Atlantic Ocean does not warm up well and cools quickly, lovers of a more comfortable temperature can swim in natural stone pools, which are quite numerous on the coast.
