Praia Fluvial da Cascalheira

Praia Fluvial da Cascalheira is a river beach along the Alva's banks where trees provide natural shade and shelter from the sun. The water flows gently, creating a pleasant spot for swimming and wading.

The area has long served as a gathering place for locals to swim and wash by the river. Over time it was formally developed and maintained as a public bathing area.

The site serves as a popular meeting place for local residents who come to swim and relax on hot days, shaping village life as a social center.

The beach offers parking, outdoor showers, and lifeguard supervision during summer months. Visitors should plan their visits during these periods for the best safety oversight.

The waters here have repeatedly earned recognition for high quality standards from nature conservation organizations. This acknowledgment reflects careful management and protection of the river's resources.
