Praia de Carreço, Atlantic beach in Carreço, Portugal.

The beach features a combination of sandy shores and rock formations, with a natural separation between dunes and the maritime area.

The coastal area gained recognition in 2006 when it received environmental certifications for water quality and accessibility standards.

Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing practices along the shoreline, particularly during the early morning hours.

The beach provides numerous facilities including showers, parking spaces, sunshade rentals, and a restaurant serving regional cuisine.

Three restored windmills stand near the beach, next to Portugal's northernmost lighthouse on Montedor Hill.
