Praia das Caxinas, Sand beach in Vila do Conde, Portugal

The coastline of Praia das Caxinas extends for 6 kilometers along the Atlantic Ocean, featuring coarse sand and clear waters near the Rio Ave mouth.

The beach sits in front of a traditional fishing district, where maritime activities and boat construction shaped the development of Vila do Conde through centuries.

Local fishermen maintain their centuries-old practices at Praia das Caxinas, where boats line the shore and nets dry in the morning sun.

The beach provides numerous facilities including showers, parking spaces, beachfront restaurants, and lifeguard services from June 15 to September 15.

Two distinct access paths lead to the beach: a northern route through beach facilities and a southern Z-shaped walkway descending to the sand.
