As with most beaches it was a bit too busy on the weekend, but enjoyable during the week. When too busy, I would recommend checking out the nearby Costa Nova beach houses instead.

Fantastic sweeping beach of pure sand. My guess is that it leads all the way to Costa Nova but we never got that far. Almost deserted whilst we were there in early November but lovely to walk along and paddle in the very cold Atlantic sea. We enjoyed our walk along here for about 2km searching for shells and watching the waves on a good sunny day. there is a boardwalk along the edge of the dunes if you don’t/can’t walk on the sand.

Long time ago, that I've seen such a tidy and clean beach. Way more locals than tourists. A lovely place to be.

When you go to Barra you need to do 2 things. Eat a Tripa and climb on top of the lighthouse. But it's only open on Wednesdays from 14 - 17, and there are 292 stairs to the top. Enjoy. :D

Großer und weitläufiger Sandstrand mit feinstem Sand und wenig Besuchern. Im März war kaum jemand da (siehe Bilder), Wilder Seegang, teilweise sehr windig - Atlantik eben!

Es gibt einen Ruhigen und einen welligeren Strandteil. Der ruhige Teil ist sehr gut für Kinder geeignet.

Clean beach, but cold water, typical of the area, very good for a walk and enjoy a beautiful sunset. Ideal for holidays, weekends or even for family outing. There are good restaurants and shops in the area, leisure sports at sea, a historical lighthouse that fills the landscape, good for visit... Next to the seawall is almost always green flag! Due all I've referred, is always very crowded in bathing season!

This gorgeous beach is great for families, with clean sands, calmer waters, and easy access to services. It's an area with history, part of Aveiro culture. As the commercial docks are close, you'll be sure to see a few ships in the distance, arriving. Do keep in mind that the beach becomes overpopulated during the summer weekends, so the beaches further along the road might be viable alternatives. Arrive early.

Love this place charming sunny love it.... good restaurants and lovely white sand beaches must visit place in Aveiro Ilhavo

Nice beach... A lot of space in the sand... Nice bars near by where you can have a drink. The water is cold, but it deserves a dive!

Amazing beach, lovely view. Plenty of restaurants and entertainment nearby.

Schöner und sehr sauberer Strand. Da er so lang ist, hat es genug Platz, auch für viele Menschen. Nachteil, sehr windig und kaltes Wasser (Atlantik)

best beach in the area to chill and enjoy the day at its best
