Praia do Beliche is sometimes referred to as Praia de Belixe and lies 3km to the north west of Sagres. The beach is situated on the EN268, the main road that heads to Cape of Saint Vincent. At the top of the beach there is a café, restaurant and hotel combined with plenty of car parking. The beach has lifeguard supervision during the summer season but the strong tides, waves and currents make it only suitable for confident swimmers. The main drawback with Beliche beach is the 100 steps that head down the side of the cliff, which is a complete pain when carrying surf boards etc.
