Playa de Pedras Brancas, Atlantic beach in Lavra, Portugal
The beach stretches along the coast with a combination of soft sand areas and rocky formations that create natural pools at low tide.
During World War II, a German submarine U-1277 sank near the shore, making it a significant diving location for maritime history enthusiasts.
Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing practices along the beach, offering visitors insights into Portuguese coastal community customs.
The beach provides essential facilities including showers, sunshade rentals, parking areas, and multiple access points through wooden walkways.
The presence of white rock formations along the shoreline creates distinct water patterns and offers natural observation points for marine life.
