The beach of Praia da Amoreira is inside the Vicentine Coast Natural Park and is at the mouth of the Aljezur River.
The beach has a wide expanse of golden fine sand which is backed by deep sand dunes.
At the southern end of the beach is the mouth of the river Aljezur.
The sea, when conditions are right, is a popular spot for surfing and bodyboarding.
When the sea is rough it is not so good for swimming and paddling, especially for youngsters, but there are many rock pools to keep the young ones entertained.
When the tide is out a shallow lagoon is left on the beach.
The lagoon is a safe popular stretch of water both for children and there parents.
Also at low tide the banks of the river Ribeira de Aljezur provides an excellent beach area but care should be taken at high tide as currents close to the mouth of the river can be very strong.
