Cardeiro Beach

CARDEIRO BEACH   Beaches  Home

Some time ago the sea advanced into the land where Cardeiro beach is currently situated,between Santo Cristo Point and Xêpa beach. After the sea subsided a cactus plant was found living in the local rock formations. This plant was very resistant to death even though the salt water continuously washed over it. This legend gave origin to the name of the beach.
