Praia do Senhor da Pedra, Sand beach with hexagonal chapel in Gulpilhares e Valadares, Portugal.
The Praia do Senhor da Pedra features a long stretch of golden sand alongside the Atlantic Ocean, with rock formations extending into the water.
The Chapel of Senhor da Pedra, constructed in 1686 on a rocky outcrop, replaced an ancient pagan worship site to promote Christianity among local residents.
A religious festival takes place annually on Trinity Sunday, attracting visitors who participate in traditional ceremonies and celebrations at the beach chapel.
The beach connects to Porto through direct train services from São Bento station, with a journey time of 28 minutes using a zone 2 fare ticket.
A wooden boardwalk extends along the coast, connecting three consecutive beaches while providing views of the hexagonal chapel perched on rocks.
