Praia Tavira-Ria, Beach on Ilha de Tavira, Portugal
Praia Tavira-Ria extends along golden sands with clear waters, located within the protected Ria Formosa Natural Park on the southern Portuguese coast.
The beach area formed part of a traditional fishing community that operated through the lagoons and waterways of Ria Formosa since the 18th century.
Local fishermen continue their daily activities near the beach, maintaining traditional methods of catching fish and shellfish in the surrounding waters.
Visitors can access the beach via regular ferry services from Tavira town or Cais das Quatro Águas, with trips running every 30 minutes during summer.
The beach sits on a barrier island separated from mainland by lagoons, creating distinct ecosystems where various water birds nest throughout the year.
