Also known as Praia de Alqueirão. Perhaps the best developed beach in the nature reserve of Peneda-Gerês. Surrounded by pure granite ridges that extend from Braga to almost Chaves in the northeast (almost 100 km), the water is used here several times: from here, Portugal draws a significant amount of its energy through a series of hydroelectric power plants and bathing facilities the cities in northern Portugal. 25 minutes from Braga. From year to year, the bathroom is upgraded more and more; There are water castles for the children, jet ski rental, pedal boats, and also the lifeguards are on site. Around this point there are many challenging tours for hikers and cyclists - there you get to 30 km fast times to 1400 vertical meters.
