Festivals
Held at the end of May/beginning of June, the colourful kite festival is a vivid spectacle held on the beach at Moledo. It is known locally as the ‘Festa de Papagaios’. The first Sunday in August sees the religious ‘Festa da Senhora ao Pé da Cruz’ which involves a procession from the old village down to the beach. This tradition has been practiced since the year 1700.
