About the Beach
What is Praia da Estela 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 Póvoa de Varzim.
Praia da Estela Beach has a very long sand, bounded north by the Club House of Estela Golf Course.
The beach is very visited by the guests of Camping Orbitur Rio Alto and golfers venturing along the course, built right beside the sand.
This is the ideal place for people seeking a less crowded beach allied to the possibility of giving some putts.
