Welcome to Baía dos Juncos
Welcome to Fajã da Areia, which we locals often call Baía dos Juncos. Sitting on the northern coast near the village of São Vicente, this spot gives you a front-row seat to our striking pebble beaches and dark volcanic rocks. The scenery here is amazing, with high cliffs and deep green valleys that plunge right down to the ocean. Getting here is half the fun. You will drive through several tunnels and navigate winding regional roads that descend from the high mountains, like the famous Encumeada pass up at 1000 meters above sea level.
Even if you are just coming to visit, the shoreline provides a clear vantage point to sit back and watch the waves. Check the camera before you head down to see if the sun is shining or if the autumn swells are arriving today.
