Plan your beach time from 10 AM to 1 PM for the best sun and fewer crowds. I went later in the afternoon and it was packed with people, not ideal for relaxing!

Bring some snacks and drinks from a local store to save money on food - the beachside cafes can be a bit pricey. Trust me those chips and cold drinks hit differently while chilling on the sand

Don’t forget your snorkel gear! The waters around Tarrafal Beach have some great spots for snorkeling; just be careful of the waves, especially in the afternoon.

My advice is to bring your own shade like an umbrella or a beach tent. The sun can get intense and I didn’t think about it until I was roasting.

I recommend grabbing some snacks from the local market before heading to the beach. Food stalls are a bit pricey, and I found some tasty stuff for half the price!

I suggest going around sunset, around 6 PM, for some stunning views and great photo ops. Plus, the crowd thins out a bit, so it's much more chill!

Definitely bring some snacks and water because the beach can get pretty hot and prices at nearby shops can be steep. I ran out of cash too quickly on overpriced drinks!

I suggest visiting around sunset (around 6:30 PM) for the stunning views without the midday heat. It's a total game-changer for your pics.

I think it's a good idea to bring your own snacks and drinks to the beach. There are a few vendors, but they can be pricey, and having your own stuff saved me some cash for the fun things.

My advice is to grab some snacks before you go. There aren’t many eating options inside, and I ended up hungry while exploring. A little picnic would’ve made the experience even better!

I suggest going on a weekday if you can. It was way less crowded and more peaceful than on weekends. Plus, you get to enjoy the gardens without rushing around.

I suggest packing a picnic and water before heading out. There aren't many places to buy food in the park and you'll want to take your time enjoying the views without rushing back to find a meal.

My advice is to wear good walking shoes and start your hike around 8 AM. The trails can be slippery and it gets pretty hot later in the day. Trust me, it makes the experience way better!
