Things To Do
Quadrado Square
Located in the historic center, with the Igreja do Quadrado and colorful houses. Several restaurants and bars around, although opening hours are generally late afternoon as most people spend the day on the beach.
Nativos Beach (Praia dos Nativos)
Location of our wedding ceremony and reception! Walking distance from the Quadrado Square. There are a lot of restaurants and beach clubs.
Coqueiros Beach (Praia dos Coqueiros)
Next to Nativos Beach, less busy and with calmer waters. Some restaurants around, and home to the Uxua Beach Club.
Itapororoca Beach (Praia de Itapororoca)
Beach isolated from the crowds, only accesible by foot. Hike takes about 40 minutes from the Rio Verde Beach. You can make a reservation with Casa Clube Trancoso to spend the day, but we recommend you call before heading out to make sure there is space (+55 73 2014 0819).
Rio Verde Beach (Praia do Rio Verde)
Nice little beach with a lagoon. Access to Bahia Bonita beach club to get food and drinks. Also, this is the starting point of the hike towards Itapororoca Beach.
Mirror Beach (Praia do Espelho)
Even though it’s a 25km drive to this beach from the Quadrado Square, it’s a must when visiting Trancoso.
Rio da Barra Beach (Praia Rio da Barra)
Only can be reached by car, through the restaurants and beach clubs.
Terravista Golf Course
For golfers, can’t miss the opportunity to golf overlooking the ocean.
