Luz – seaside village ideal for low key beach holiday. Easy access to its broad beach edged by the distinctive black volcanic rock. Was a fishing village, now an ideal holiday location for those with small children. Luz has become a popular place for British residents and this is reflected in the shops and services around Luz. Historical points around Luz include the walls of the ancient baths and the salting tanks for the fish which can be viewed just a short distance from the terrace. The local church actually gave Luz its name. It is called the Church of Our Lady of Light (igreja da Nossa Senhora da Luz)
