Praia Fluvial de Merelim São Paio, River beach in Merelim São Paio, Portugal
The Merelim São Paio river beach extends along the banks of a freshwater stream within the Braga municipality, offering swimming and recreation areas.
The area of Merelim traces its origins to 1082, documented as 'Villa Merlin' in historical records of property transactions with Bishop Pedro.
The region maintains connections to the ancient Royal Road 27, which connected the city of Braga to Santiago de Compostela in medieval times.
The beach provides direct access to water activities and includes essential facilities for visitors during the summer swimming season.
The beach sits within a parish formed in 2013 through the merger of three historic communities: São Paio de Merelim, Panóias, and Parada de Tibães.
