- mariedesjardinsPrince George, Canada7 312 contributionsI visited Praia Formosa’s beautiful golden sand shores with Smatur tours. There was time for a quick walk along the beach and photos. The water was refreshingly cool on an August afternoon that was over 25c and humid.Written 8 October 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- mariedesjardinsPrince George, Canada7 312 contributionsSao Laurenco was a stop on my tour with Smatur. It offers amazing views of Praia Formosa below. There is a rest area with benches and recliners to admire Santa Maria’s stunning ocean and mountain scenery. The weather the first week of August was hot and humid, but we also stopped at the beach to cool off.Written 24 December 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
