About the Beach
What is Praia da Areia Branca 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 Lourinhã.
Praia da Areia Branca Beach displays a very lengthy sand, situated in the sea front of the village sharing the same name.
To the north, the beach is bounded by a rock formation and at south, by Aeródromo da Lourinhã1 that was built in the middle of the dunes.
The Rio Grande or Ribeira dos Palheiros2 empties in the center of the sand.
There are several access points to the beach, including a lovely sea side road.

5/ 10Uma linda praia mas suja na beira, mal cuidada,e cachorros solto, os donos pensam que a praia é para seus cachorros, tem que prenderem e tem que usarem focinheira, tem que criarem um parque para cachorro e não usarem a praia para seus cachorros andarem a cagar e atacando as pessoas, falta controleDante Gonçalves 2020-06-27 12:25
