Try to do it as part of the buggy trip to Lagoa Azul. Its the trademark of Jeri so I guess if you are there you should go and have a look
Do not waste your time going there unless you are around, go for a jog early morning. Just a rock with a hole, nothing special.
It's a beautiful place, there's no doubt. However be prepared for a good walk (there are other transportation means like horse, buggies don't enter!). You can take some interesting pictures. Go with low tide otherwise you will get it more difficult....take water (there is no commerce there!)
You get there by coach and then 800m walk up the slope down to the beach. In July, the sunset is exactly between the beach and the stone, and you can see the sun setting exactly the "hole". Fantastic.
It was nice. Over hyped and over it after about ten minutes. It was a nice hike along the beach to get to it from Jeri. Lots of little caves and cliffs to explore.
A must visit if you are in Jeri! takes a bit of a hike to get there but its worth it! you walk from Jeri but I would recommend visit while doing a buggy tour.
There are three ways to access the beach from the pierced stone (pedra furada) and loose stone (pedra solta), however, the path that borders the beaches is the most difficult and beautiful. Should be done by young people willing to walk in very soft sand. Stone loose beacn and stone pierced beach are the two things that should be seen at least once in the afternoon because many people go there, filling the place. walk and contemplate the scenery is better in the morning.
Beautiful scenario, specially at sunset. Although Duna do Pôr do Sol has a more stunning view, at least one day you should spend at Pedra Furada. Not only Pedra Furada is beautiful, but there are many colourful and beautiful rocks nearby. You should definitively check the surrounding area for a great view.
A group from town walks to Pedra Furada ensemble every day at a certain time (ask at your pousada, they all know what time and where you can catch them). The walk there is really beautiful, with wild donkeys dotting the hills. Once there everyone scrambles to take a photo of themselves in the middle of the rock, which is a bit annoying... and then everyone scrambles to take the photo of the sun as its setting and showing from the hole. While it is a bit overly touristy, its still a nice walk and worth doing if you want that picture or you dont mind doing something touristy every once in a while.
It's a little hard to get there as you have to climb down a very irregular field, but it's worth it. You can get there early in the morning by the sea cost, or walk from up the hill using the Lighthouse trail. Use your tennis shoes and you will climb better. Hire a horse car for the trip back to downtown.
