Praia da Duquesa
What to expect.
Essentially Conceição's neighbour — the same stretch of sand divided by some rocks. Same calm water, same lifeguards, same vibe. A bit less crowded because people default to Conceição first. Good option when the main beach is packed and you want a quieter patch of sand with kids.
