A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seabookings.com\/pt\/blog\/7-razoes-para-visitar-portugal-este-verao\/\">major attraction in Portugal<\/a> is certainly its <strong>stunning beaches<\/strong>. For a safe travel experience, we\u2019d like to share the COVID-19 measures for the beaches in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seabookings.com\/pt\/destination\/portugal\/\">Portugal<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Summer is coming. It will be a <strong>special summer<\/strong>, as we\u2019re all super excited to enjoy the beach after lockdown. Given the ongoing risk associated with the coronavirus, it is necessary to <strong>reinvent the way in which beaches are enjoyed<\/strong>, stressing the need to maintain <strong>physical distance and basic sanitary measures<\/strong>. However, we must not forget that it is very important to keep a day at the beach a comfortable experience.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The start of the official bathing season in Portugal has been delayed a few days, to June 6th, because of the measures needed to be set regarding Covid-19. The Portuguese government has given authority to local municipalities and local maritime authorities, together with the Portuguese Environment Agency to <strong>establish and implement a series of protocols <\/strong>regarding the usage of beaches in Portugal.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beach protocols may be updated along the summer if needed, depending on the evolution of the virus. Here are some of the <strong>main COVID-19 measures for the beaches in Portugal<\/strong> you need to know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>There will be <strong>signs<\/strong> (like traffic lights or similar) to indicate the occupancy of each beach and this information and other details will also be available online through an App (\u201cInfo Praias\u201d) or on the Portuguese Environment Agency\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/apambiente.pt\/\">website<\/a>:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Green &#8211; under \u2153<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Yellow &#8211; \u2154<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Red &#8211; full and you should not enter.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Car parking<\/strong> will only be allowed in designated areas.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>There may be some circulation <strong>direction lanes<\/strong> or markings on the sand to make sure people can keep their distances while walking around.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Beach towels should be separated by at least <strong>1.5 meters<\/strong> between families or different groups of people and sun umbrellas will have to be at least <strong>3 meters<\/strong> apart.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>O <strong>rental of thatched umbrellas, awnings and tents<\/strong> will only be allowed for half a day (either morning until 1.30 pm or afternoon after 2 pm) for up to 5 people.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Only individual sports activity will be allowed on the beach, except for nautical activities, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seabookings.com\/pt\/categories\/surfar\/\">surf<\/a>, diving and similar <strong>desportos aqu\u00e1ticos<\/strong> under specific rules.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Public bathrooms and showers<\/strong> will follow strict hygienic rules and public equipment will be sanitised frequently.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Beach bars and restaurants<\/strong> will also follow sanitary and social distancing protocols.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Beach hawkers<\/strong> (\u201cvendedores ambulantes\u201d) need to use face visor and mask.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.seabookings.com\/pt\/categories\/surfar\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/seabookings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Surf-Albufeira-2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15530 smush-dimensions\" width=\"1024\" style=\"--smush-image-width: 1024px; --smush-image-aspect-ratio: 1024\/683;\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Surfing, for example, is permitted, in groups up to 5 participants<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Please remember that a safe beach experience starts with ourselves, so don\u2019t forget these <strong>good practices for a safe beach day<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Before the beach: <strong>check the flow of nearby beaches<\/strong>, consulting the InfoPraia app, preferring those with a lower level of occupation, marked in green, as well as monitored beaches and with quality control;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When there is a high level of occupation, <strong>do not risk traveling<\/strong>, as it can be difficult to keep the safety distance;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When accessing the beach: wear <strong>sapatos<\/strong>, always move on the right and follow the signs that may exist on the floor and keep a distance of <strong>1.5 meters<\/strong> from other users who do not belong to your group;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>On the beach: keep the social distance of 1.5 meters to other users, on the beach and in the sea a <strong>3 meter spacing between parasols<\/strong>;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>At the beach bar or sanitary facilities: wear shoes, <strong>disinfect hands and keep social distance<\/strong>;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When leaving the beach: do not leave <strong>litter or butts<\/strong> on the beach (masks and gloves should be deposited in general garbage containers).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.seabookings.com\/pt\/destination\/portugal\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/seabookings.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/7-reasons-to-visit-Portugal-this-summer-1-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"visit Portugal this summer\" class=\"wp-image-15496 smush-dimensions\" width=\"1024\" style=\"--smush-image-width: 1024px; --smush-image-aspect-ratio: 1024\/684;\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Another tip is to travel later in the season, so you&#8217;ll find beaches emptier.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Do you think these rules are acceptable, too relaxed or too strict?
