About the Beach
What is Praia Azul Beach?
It's an Oceanic Beach in the northern hemisphere bathed by the Atlantic Ocean, located on the coast of Portugal - Iberian Peninsula - in the municipality of Vila do Conde.
Praia Azul Beach presents a medium sized sand, belonging to the urbanistic area of Vila do Conde.
This beach is characterized by its stirred sea waters, therefore is very sought by water sports fans. Most of them are surfers who usually catch the waves immediately south of the islet that is visible about 150 meters off shore.
It's important to mention that during some summer seasons, according to the allocation of lifeguards, may exist an area of about 100 meters between this beach and the neighboring south decreed as "unsupervised beach."
Access is done through Avenida Manuel Barros1, also known as Marginal Atlântica2.
