Praia da Boa Nova, Atlantic beach in Leça da Palmeira, Portugal.
The beach features a central sandy area suitable for swimming, while both ends contain rock formations extending into the Atlantic Ocean.
The beach area gained recognition in the 1960s when architect Álvaro Siza Vieira designed the Casa de Chá da Boa Nova building on its rocky coastline.
The Leça Lighthouse near the beach serves as a maritime navigation point and stands as a symbol of the region's connection to seafaring traditions.
The beach maintains European Union Blue Flag certification standards, offering visitors clean water, safety services, and basic facilities including showers and parking.
The combination of fine sand and natural rock formations creates separate areas for swimming and exploration along the Portuguese northern coast.
