Praia do Campismo is located in the town of Casais do Baleal, forming part of the vast coastal area of the municipality of Peniche. This sandy beach, bathed by the Atlantic Ocean, is situated as a southern extension of Praia do Baleal, nestled within the Bay of Peniche de Cima. Its position allows for enjoying a wide perspective of the coastline, including the Baleal Peninsula in the distance.
The beach is located in an area that shares its name, the Praia do Campismo urbanization, characterized by an environment that combines proximity to the sea with a preserved natural setting.
Characterized by a considerable expanse of golden sand, Praia do Campismo offers ample space for those seeking moments of tranquility. Its waters are generally calm, making them inviting for serene swims. Along the coastline, the presence of rolled pebbles can be observed, naturally integrating into the maritime landscape.
One of the most striking aspects of this beach is its dune system, which extends vastly and is densely covered by low-lying vegetation. The absence of elevated walkways contributes to a sense of integration with nature, with access to the sandy beach provided by pedestrian trails that naturally and respectfully conform to the dune landscape.
This natural area is an example of conservation, where human interaction adapts to the environment, allowing for a closer experience with the coastal ecosystem.
