Morena Beach is located on the extensive coastline of the municipality of Almada, integrated into the Costa da Caparica area. It faces the Atlantic Ocean, benefiting from a vast and exposed natural environment. Its position in the landscape is marked by its proximity to a dune system characteristic of this coastal strip.
This beach has a considerable stretch of sand, extending along the coast. Throughout its length, the sandy area is delimited by a dune system. These dunes form a distinctive natural element of the landscape, contributing to the wild environment and the preservation of the coastal zone.
With the receding tide, Morena Beach reveals an interesting feature: the formation of various puddles and small areas of water retained on the sand. These types of natural pools, visible during low tide, offer more sheltered and tranquil spots near the sea, being appreciated, for example, by families looking for a safe space for children to play by the water.
The character of Morena Beach is typically oceanic, with waters that can present significant swell at certain times. This natural condition of the sea, sometimes rougher, makes the beach a prime spot for the practice of various water sports that depend on the force and movement of the waves.
