Its position, away from major centers, contributes to a tranquil and serene atmosphere.
The surrounding scenery of Pêgo Natural River Beach is shaped by unique natural beauty. The Paiva River, renowned for the purity of its waters, is the central element of the landscape, inviting an experience in communion with nature. The surrounding area is densely wooded, with an abundance of large trees that provide vast shaded areas and contribute to the feeling of an untouched and lush ecosystem.
This riverside recreation area features a stretch of light sand, suitable for laying out a towel and enjoying the sun. The Paiva River waters, at this point, are particularly calm, forming a small lagoon where bathing is inviting. It is important to note that the riverbed, due to the tranquility of the current, tends to be muddier. For the water to remain clear and crystalline, it is suggested not to stir the bottom when entering or exiting the river.
