Paçô beach, Atlantic beach in Carreço, Portugal.
The beach extends along a wide sandy stretch between two granite formations, providing a natural setting for coastal activities and ocean views.
The beach takes its name from the Montedor Fort, a military structure classified as Public Interest Real Estate in January 1967.
Traditional granite dwellings near the parking area represent the architectural heritage of northern Portuguese coastal settlements.
The beach maintains lifeguard services from June 15 to September 15 and has received the Blue Flag certification since 1987.
The combination of ancient granite structures and coastal formations creates distinct areas for photography and nature observation.
