Almécegas II has a smaller fall, approximately six meters high, reached by a short walk of around three hundred meters. The surrounding rock slabs make a place to linger by the water, with relatively easy access compared with Almécegas I.
Depth, submerged obstacles and swimming permissions vary. Avoid jumping from the rocks. Use only the areas open for swimming.
Hiring a guide is mandatory for Almécegas II via the Aldeia access, which is separate from the usual Fazenda São Bento entrance.
