Praia de Torre

Praia de Torre is a beach in Carcavelos e Parede with a golden sandy shoreline stretching roughly 350 meters along the Atlantic coast. The beach is backed by natural cliffs and features two beachfront cafes with parking nearby.

The beach sits adjacent to Forte de São Julião da Barra, a coastal fortress built in 1568 during the reign of King João III. This fortification has shaped the character of this coastline for centuries.

The beach draws locals and visitors during summer months who swim and dine at the beachfront cafes lining the shore. It serves as a social gathering spot where people spend time by the water and enjoy casual meals.

The beach has lifeguards during summer months and convenient parking nearby. It is best to visit during daylight hours when all facilities are fully operational.

A converted railway carriage has been transformed into the Luar da Barra bar, located right on the beach. This repurposed structure offers drinks and ocean views from an unexpected spot.
