In northern Quião, where the waterfront street ends, the traditional Sargassum seaweed gathering is still practiced; it is spread and laid in the beach for sun drying, leaving a pleasant sargassum brease in the beach, before being pilled to make "medas".
This area is protected by dunes from former masseiras and rocks and, given its quietude, it is used by naturists, and is a flirting area for straight couples and gay men.
