The beach is set on the southernmost tip of the Ria de Aveiro, unfortunately the construction boom of past years has given an unaesthetic surroundings to the beach.
It is a preferred summer holidays setting for the Portuguese, but even though there is a lot of people in the summer, you can find many stretches of beach which are very quiet as this beach goes for almost 30km.
Again here it used to be a fisher village. Due to the harsh sea, the fisherman developed a sea-boat capable of breaking the waves. It doesn’t have keel and is a huge rowing boat that you can still see today and even help toe ashore, if you wake up early enough (they come ashore 5:00 -6:00 in the morning).
