ABOUT

Mar de Fora is the open sea side of Encantadas. With strong waves, light sand and wild scenery, it's the spot for surfers staying in the village. The contrast between the rough open sea and the tranquil Praia das Encantadas on the inside is impressive. There is no infrastructure on the sand — it's pure beach, for those who want contact with the ocean in its raw state.
