The beach is really lovely with its golden fine sand, and it's not overcrowded with people, which is a plus.

The beach is a wonderful spot for a stroll, though it can get quite windy, so it's best to pack some warm clothing. Additionally, the beach boasts beautiful golden sand that is incredibly fine.

This is hands down my favorite beach in northern Portugal. It's peaceful, serene, and well-maintained. I have so many fond memories of this beach, having visited with my family since I was a child. There are plenty of amenities available, including cafes, restrooms, and ample parking. Whether you're looking to spend a relaxing day by the water or go for a leisurely stroll along the coast, this beach is the perfect spot. And the scenery? Simply breathtaking.
