A closer look

Begin near the lighthouse and choose a shore for the conditions on the day. Atlantic beaches can have strong surf and currents.

Give the place its own time

Leave time for the coastal town and arrange more distant Rocha excursions separately. Seasonal opening and transport should be confirmed.

Give the day room to unfold

Choose one main outing for each day and leave time for meals and the journey back. Confirm access, transport and any guided arrangements before setting out.
