Not as sandy as the previous ones. Beware : some parts between P. de Carvalhal and P. Amalia are quite tough. Took a shorcut on the last 10km. Following the green and blue tags may add 4 km.

We wanted to overnight there with our camper but the road was too muddy to allow that. After we pulled out another camper who got stuck we retreated to a different spot. So we hiked there a day later instead.
