Ponta da Ferraria
450
"Ponta da Ferraria is a natural hot spring that empties into a natural ocean pool, so when the conditions are right (i.e.,
low tide
when you can get a good mix of the cold and hot water) it's truly special."
"... you can enjoy ocean water without threat of frostbites :D The best time for visit is one hour before and two hours after low tide, when you can enjoy
warm water
in the pool with refreshing cold waves from ocean."
