Praia Fluvial do Penedo Furado, River beach in Vila de Rei, Portugal

Penedo Furado River Beach is a riverside spot with natural rock outcrops and clear water from the Codes stream as it flows into the Zezere River. Pine forests surround the area, creating a wooded setting along the water's edge.

The region changed significantly in the 1950s when the Castelo Bode dam was built. This project turned the area into one of Portugal's largest water reserves.

A 480-million-year-old fossil called Bicha Pintada remains preserved near the beach, marking significant geological heritage in the region.

The spot has a bar, picnic area, playground, and public restrooms for visitors. Lifeguards are on duty during the warmer months.

A circular walking path roughly two kilometers long winds through rocky passages starting from the beach. This trail leads to waterfalls and viewing platforms near the cliffs of Fragas do Rabadão.
