October 7, 2022,Der Küstenweg von Caniçal 🌊

After yesterday's large audience, we first need a small round to warm up without other people.
The Caniçal coastal path is ideal for this. 😊

Nice and quiet and few "people"........

I can also recommend the bar at the very end of the round. Drinks are tasty and cheap. Toilets free and new.
