Safety tips 1️⃣ Rocks may weather and loosen, so don't get too close to the edge of the cliffs 😮! Safety first! 2️⃣ Respect nature and protect the environment 🌍! Best time 1️⃣ Since the visibility at the heart-shaped cave on the cliff isn't greatly affected by the tide, it's best to avoid rainy or windy days. The cliffs can become very slippery and dangerous 😨! 2️⃣ Try not to go during the peak season from June to September, when the cliff trails are more crowded. Off-peak travel often provides a better experience 👍! 📷 Photography tips: 1️⃣ Go before ten in the morning or during sunset in the evening, when there are fewer people, the scenery is beautiful, and the light is particularly soft 😍! 2️⃣ Many of those famous photos of the heart-shaped rock are taken with drones, but you can also use a camera and tripod. To get the best angle, you need to be a bit higher, so adjust the tripod to its maximum height, or lift the camera as high as possible above your head to capture the perfect image of the heart-shaped rock 🤳! 3️⃣ It seems that you need special permission to use drones for filming in Portugal 🤔.
