Praia Fluvial de Fróia

Praia Fluvial de Fróia runs along about 200 meters of riverbank with clear water and shaded areas beneath trees. Complete facilities are available on-site, including lifeguard services, changing rooms, showers, a restaurant, bar, children's pool, and parking.

A restored stone mill along the riverbank once served as a grain processing center for the surrounding villages. This structure shows how water power supported the economy and daily life of the communities in this area.

Local slate structures visible along the water show how people traditionally built in this part of Portugal. The way the riverbank is arranged reflects the choices communities made about living near water.

The beach is easy to reach and well-maintained throughout the warmer months. Visitors should check current water conditions before planning their visit to make the most of the site.

From June through September, free shuttle buses run between a nearby urban park and this location. The scheduled departures make it easy to visit without a personal car.
