    • Leça da Palmeira Beach

      Leça da Palmeira Beach is one of the most stunning coastal settings in Matosinhos, where the Atlantic Ocean meets dramatic rock formations that create unique and unforgettable landscapes. It's a perfect spot for those seeking sun, sea, and direct contact with nature, far from the urban hustle and bustle.

      Besides being a popular destination for swimmers and surfers, the beach stands out for its proximity to the Piscina das Marés (Tidal Pool), an iconic work by Álvaro Siza Vieira, and the traditional architecture of the region. Strolling along the rocks allows you to contemplate the sea in all its power and beauty, while breathing in the sea breeze and appreciating the tranquility of the place.

      Leça da Palmeira Beach is also an ideal spot for photography, walks, and moments of contemplation, perfect for families, tourists, or any visitor who wants to feel the energy of the Atlantic and the essence of the Matosinhos coast. Each sunset transforms the scenery into a true natural painting, making the visit memorable in any season.
