Fonte da Telha, Beach destination on Costa da Caparica, Portugal

The beach stretches along 5 kilometers of coastline, featuring golden sand beaches beside high cliffs and the Mata dos Medos pine forest.

This former fishing settlement maintains its maritime roots through local fishermen who continue traditional xalavar fishing methods along the shoreline.

The combination of fishing boats, family restaurants, and beach activities creates a Portuguese coastal lifestyle that reflects local maritime traditions.

Visitors find optimal kitesurfing conditions from May through September, with northwest winds providing consistent patterns for water sports enthusiasts.

The beach sits within the Arriba Fóssil nature preserve, where Miocene period fossils remain preserved in the surrounding cliff formations.
