Praia da Mosca, also known as Ourondinho River Beach, is located within the Taliscas urbanization, in the locality of Paul, Covilhã municipality. This spot is framed by the imposing Serra da Estrela and Serra da Gardunha mountains, which delineate the surrounding landscape.
The waters that bathe it originate from the Ourondinho Stream, which here forms a natural dam before continuing its course towards the Zêzere River. Its proximity to the village of Paul facilitates access and integrates this natural space into the life of the local community.
The environment of Praia da Mosca is distinguished by its serenity and the richness of its natural landscape. The dam, which forms the bathing area, is harmoniously sheltered by dense vegetation.
Large pine trees, leafy chestnut trees, and colorful mimosas line the banks, creating a green and welcoming scenery. This arboreal surrounding provides natural shade and a tranquil atmosphere, ideal for those seeking a moment of rest and contact with nature.
The characteristics of Praia da Mosca make it particularly suitable for those seeking a calm riverine spot. Its waters generally have a reduced depth, which contributes to a sense of safety.
The banks, in turn, are extensive and of good quality, offering space to enjoy the sun or the breeze. The secluded nature of the location and the calm waters of the stream provide a pleasant environment for a peaceful swim, suitable for various types of visitors.
