A distinctive feature of this place is that it stays sunny throughout the whole year, with the difference that in the months from May to July rainy season occurs.

The extremely worthwhile Tamar Project station, designed to protect endangered sea turtles, is located on the beach of Praia do Forte next to the church and lighthouse.
