Alverangel River Beach is located in São Pedro de Tomar, within the urbanisation or area of Alverangel, in the municipality of Tomar. This place, bathed by the waters of the vast Castelo do Bode Dam, one of the largest bodies of water in the country, offers a natural and serene setting.
Situated within the impressive Castelo do Bode Dam area, this river beach benefits from the presence of the Zêzere River. The vastness of the waters here is remarkable, and during periods of higher river flow, a small island forms, adding a distinct scenic element to the location and inviting moments of leisure close to nature.
Known for its calm atmosphere and high quality, Alverangel River Beach stands out for its waters. They are characterized by being tranquil and, in particular, tend to have slightly warmer temperatures than other river bathing areas, making it a welcoming place to enjoy nature.
This area is recognized as a river beach, being identified by government entities related to National Defense, Agriculture, Sea, Environment, and Spatial Planning. Its inclusion in the Special Spatial Plan for the Castelo de Bode Dam attests to its relevance. For over five decades, local residents and visitors have sought out this pleasant retreat, valuing it for the environment it provides.
