Quad biking in Ponta Do Ouro has become increasingly popular. Riding here offers the opportunity to explore the area’s 4×4 tracks, sand dunes, inland lakes, the nearby beach forests and the light house which gives a mesmerizing bird’s eye view.

The most popular spot for quad bikers is 4-5 km/2.4-3.1 mi north of Ponta Do Ouro and consists of tracks which run through dense dune forests and half-pipe like sand pits. Don’t be fooled by the soft sandy dunes, they can be a hustle to tackle!!

There is a maximum speed limit of 20 kph/12 mph and children under 16 years are not allowed to ride within Ponta itself, however there is a spot outside the village that caters for them.
