About the Beach
What is Praia da Mina 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 Alcobaça (North).
Praia da Mina Beach, also known as Praia da Mina do Azeiche Beach, has a very long sand which tapers to the south. It's situated in a valley mouth near Camping Paredes da Vitória.
At center, a small watercourse is formed during heavier rainfall.
The access is done via a pedestrian path standing between a house and a tennis court. Along the cliff descent there are two wooden benches which will prove useful in time to return.
