Praia fluvial de Adaúfe, River beach on the Cávado River in Braga, Portugal.
Praia fluvial de Adaúfe is a river beach along the Cávado with roughly 200 meters of shoreline combining sand and grassed areas. The site provides a rest area, picnic tables, and drinking water stations distributed across the grounds.
The site preserves remnants of an old mill and irrigation system that once served the surrounding farmland with water through mechanical means. These structures reflect a time when water power was central to local agricultural practices.
The beach takes its name from the nearby village of Adaúfe and serves as a popular gathering spot for locals seeking relaxation and family time. Weekend visitors enjoy swimming and picnicking in this casual setting that blends water and open green spaces.
The site operates with full facilities from mid-June through mid-September, when a first aid station and support services are available on-site. Access is straightforward and the shallow water areas work well for families and visitors with mobility needs.
The beach features wheelchair ramps and specially designed changing facilities that allow visitors with mobility challenges full swimming access. These amenities stand out among similar facilities in the wider region.
