Cocoon is located in the coastal Alentejo region. Also known as The Costa Vicentina, much of the Southwest coast of Portugal is protected by a natural reserve. Spring temperatures are perfect for exploring the spread of land by bike or hiking, and bonfires in the evening. The nearest town is the charming Vila Nova de Milfontes and Praia Cavaliero is one of many untouched nearby beaches that we can’t wait to visit!
