Praia de Pedrogão, Sandy beach in Coimbrão, Portugal.
Praia de Pedrogão is a sandy beach along the Atlantic coast in Coimbrão, stretching with brown sand and rocky sections throughout. The shore connects with neighboring beaches, forming a continuous stretch of coastline.
The beach developed as part of the coastal landscape shaped by the Mata Nacional do Pedrogão, a forest with deep historical roots. This connection between shore and woodland has defined the character of this section of coast.
During summer months, locals and visitors gather here to socialize and relax, with the beach serving as a central spot for community leisure activities.
Swimming is possible in designated areas marked by natural features that help orient visitors. The site has shower facilities and toilets available, plus parking space to accommodate visitors.
A striking natural rock formation extends for hundreds of meters, dividing the beach into two distinct swimming zones. This geological feature creates different conditions on each side and serves as a natural landmark.
