Figueirinha Beach is located in the district of Setúbal, nestled in the municipality of the same name. This beach is strategically positioned on the slopes of the stunning Arrábida Mountain Range, facing the serene waters of the Sado River estuary.
Its geographical location grants it a natural setting of rare beauty, where the lush green of the mountains harmoniously meets the turquoise blue of the sea, providing a coastal landscape of great scenic value.
It is characterized by its extensive stretch of fine, golden sand, bathed by calm and clear waters. The natural protection offered by the Arrábida Mountain Range and the bay's orientation contributes to the tranquility of its waters, making it a pleasant place for swimming and leisure moments.
One of its distinctive aspects is the formation of a small sandbar, which becomes visible and accessible during low tide, allowing visitors a unique experience of walking a short distance into the sea. The dense vegetation of Arrábida extends very close to the sandy area, accentuating the visual contrast and the feeling of immersion in nature.
The atmosphere at Figueirinha Beach is one of tranquility and conviviality, appreciated by those seeking a natural refuge close to the city. Its scenic beauty is one of its main attractions, inviting contemplation and relaxation. The landscape setting, with the mountains merging into the sea, offers memorable views, especially on days of good visibility.
It is a place that celebrates the natural beauty of the Portuguese coast, providing a serene setting to enjoy the sun and the sea in one of the most remarkable corners of Setúbal's coastline.
