Situated in the bay of Portinho da Arrábida, at its eastern end, this beach is located in the municipality of Setúbal. It is integrated into the protected area of the Arrábida Natural Park, which contributes to the preservation of its surrounding natural environment.
Praia da Anicha is characterized by a modest-sized sandy strip. The extent of this sandy area varies considerably with the tide cycle, being wider during low tide and significantly reducing at high tide.
The waters in this area are typically calm and display a characteristic green hue. The proximity of Pedra da Anicha, a rocky outcrop a few hundred meters from the coast, contributes to the natural richness of the local seabed. This area is recognized for its underwater biological diversity, making it a place of interest for those who enjoy observing marine life, such as diving or snorkeling enthusiasts.
Located within the limits of the Arrábida Natural Park, Praia da Anicha benefits from a preserved natural environment. The waters typically exhibit remarkable clarity, a factor that enhances the beauty of the seabed and the experience of interacting with the underwater environment.
