João Meireles where you have to go straight ahead until the end. Right after the gas station, you have to turn right to Av. Cerro da Vila and then, at the end, just near the Lake Resort, you have to turn left on the Av. da Rocha Baixinha. Just a few metres after and you have reached the beach car park. Then, by foot, you have to cross a small bridge after which you will get to the beach.
