Praia de Mira aninha-se entre as dunas e o Atlântico, de um lado, e as águas serenas da lagoa da Barrinha (local bom para passear de barco, nadar e para alguns desportos náuticos) do outro, e orgulha-se dos seus barcos de pesca tradicionais, pintados de cores vivas e com a proa alta.

Mira is a pretty village set around a lagoon and has the most facilities for that stretch of coastline. The village is full of restaurants and cafes in the summer and looks set to become an aquaculture centre for sea bass.
To go to Praia de Mira you pass through hectares of forest at the end of which are picnic benches in the leafy shade.
