About the beach

A wide, almost wild beach at the southern tip of the strip of land that separates the Ria de Aveiro from the sea, beside the harbour channel and the São Jacinto Dunes Nature Reserve. From Aveiro, the quickest way there is the regular boat across the lagoon. It is popular for surfing and long walks and is part of the Praia Acessível programme, but lifeguard cover is not always guaranteed.
