Praia da Conceição, Beach in Cascais, Portugal
Praia da Conceição is a sandy beach in Cascais with a sloping shoreline that drops gradually into the water. The cove is sheltered by rock formations on either side, creating a naturally protected swimming area.
The name comes from a nearby chapel from past centuries that served the spiritual needs of local coastal communities. The chapel no longer stands, but the name has endured through the generations.
The presence of Casa Faial villa and Hotel Albatroz frames this beach between two notable architectural landmarks of Portuguese coastal heritage.
The beach has showers, restrooms, and lifeguard presence during swimming season for visitor safety. Food options are available right at the beach with several cafes and restaurants in the area.
During summer months, a large inflatable play structure is anchored in the calm waters, providing entertainment for children swimming in the protected bay.
