Praia da ursa
View a beach of spectacular natural beauty at Praia da ursa, where thousands of years of the Atlantic's wind and waves have carved the rocks and cliffs into interesting shapes, including a huge stone in the form of a bear. Located in the Natural Park of Sintra, this piece of shoreline--Europe's westernmost beach--can be difficult to access due to the steep, rocky hill leading down to it. Once at the bottom, explore the sandy shore and blue, albeit cold, waters. Nudists favor this attraction for its hard-to-reach location. Consider delaying your visit if the weather is rainy, because the climb becomes too slippery to travel here safely. See Praia da ursa and all Sintra has to offer by arranging your trip with our Sintra online trip builder.

Praia da ursa reviews
-
One of the most beautiful beaches in Europe, easy to get there and not expensive at all. Portugal offers the best options to spend a week off of the routine. more »
-
The best b-day. The extremely outstanding view. But if wants to reach this beach you need to climb up/down.... In any case it is worth it. Rocks, sand, atlantic ocean.... Must see... more »
-
Beautiful view! It's worth visiting, but if you prefer a beach to relax and spend the day, there are many other beaches for you to choose from. This is a quick visit for pictures. A lot of tourists... more »

Spectacular beach!
-
The most beautiful beach we visited in Portugal. Difficult to reach but it was worth it !!(30 min climbing). The view is out of this world..
-
Absolutely stunning, and just as cold if not colder than swimming at other portuguese beaches but the waves were higher which forces you to get under water... and that's fantastic
-
incredible place, a must seen on my list. arriving with own car is easy, there is place to park, you can walk the last meter but it is steep walk at the cliffs. only recommended if u are fit
