Location

Situated in the town of Vila do Conde, more specifically in the Bairro Piscatório (Fishermen's Quarter), Praia do Turismo Norte is positioned as one of the coastal stretches that embrace the city's urban front. This ocean beach is bathed by the waters of the Atlantic, integrating harmoniously into the surrounding urban environment.

Its position offers easy accessibility for those exploring the area, allowing a direct connection between the urban environment and the maritime landscape.

Sand and Rock Formations

Praia do Turismo Norte is characterized by its extensive sandy area, which stretches along the coastline. This sandy space is punctuated by the presence of several rock formations that emerge near the water's edge.

Such natural structures not only enrich the visual landscape of the site but also play a role in defining its boundaries, with a larger rock marking its southern end and a rock formation to the north complementing the coastal scenery.

Coastal Panoramas

Praia do Turismo Norte offers wide, unobstructed views over the ocean and the coastline of Vila do Conde. To the north, on a rocky elevation, there is a viewpoint that provides a sweeping panoramic view over the stretch of sand and the vastness of the Atlantic.

In the center of the beach, a second, oval-shaped viewpoint serves as a privileged spot for contemplating the maritime dynamics and the coastal environment, inviting visitors to enjoy the surrounding landscape.

Quality and Preservation

Praia do Turismo Norte is notable for the quality of its bathing waters and the accessibility it provides. This recognition stems from a commitment to the environmental preservation of the site and the comfort of its visitors.

Additionally, the beach is part of a protected coastal landscape, a feature that underscores its natural value and contributes decisively to maintaining a serene and well-preserved environment, ideal for enjoyment.
