Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Great beach with great sunset views. Largest sandy beach near Ericiera and great for watching surfers. There are also great food options along the boardwalk.

This place has an amazing location with an amazing view. To see the view you need clean windows. They are filthy. Prices are way beyond normal in Ericeira specially for drinks. Food is average but everyone had to ask for extra seasoning. In summary, if you want the only place in Ericeira to dine at the beach at night, this is the place. But it needs improvements

This beach is perfect for families as there is a good stretch of sand, some big waves for surfing and a river off to the side for a paddle with younger children.
There is also a selection of bars and restaurants at the top, so an ideal way to spend a few hours just outside Ericeira.

The water was cold, which is typical for northern Portugal in September. The lovely sandbar where a river feeds into the ocean makes it a perfect hangout for families with small children. We were impressed with the number of nice looking and fit young people ( some with kids)out there for a good time.
Thatched umbrellas and seats are available for rental with restaurants that serve vegan food ( great falafel) and sangrias. There is also plenty of parking.

This is a beautiful and clean beach that is a perfect destination if you are looking for either a relaxing time or activity.

Great beach for all, very large, all sand. It shelves into the water quickly but there’s a sand bar straight after it so not so deep. Great for surfing (I watched not participated), you can body surf in on the waves. No large stones or pebbles in the water that I experienced. Some good bars in the beach, plenty of parking too

I thoroughly enjoy this beach. It has adequate surf and amenities. Plus its got a nice river mouth for family and children to enjoy the water when the surf is too rough and/or cold. To be honest this is the beach that makes me want to come back to Ericeira again and again each summer.

My wife and I rented a motorcycle and ended up at this beach by way of a small unmarked road. The parking at the top was a long way from the beach so we turned around and drove right to the front with the other motos and parked. The car lot was packed at 11am!

We spotted a restaurant offering vegan food as we headed toward to beach. At the very end of the boardwalk to the right is a beach chair and umbrella rental. For €15 we were set for the day.

After swimming in the cold, refreshing Atlantic we strolled to grab some food and amazing sangrias! Several surfboard and wetsuit rentals and camps offer hourly and all day rentals.

Excellent family beach and overall Top 5 in the World for us so far!

A lovely sandy beach with a shallow river running into the sea. Fabulous location for families with children who can experience the sea and the river and explore the river and rocks.

Ample parking in the area and there are also some eateries next to the beach, be aware though that it will be slightly more expensive than what you may have become used in the north of Portugal.

This is a beginner to average surfers dreams beach and there were a lot of surfers out with some youngsters being put through their paces by the surfing schools. What was really awesome to see, was the amazing amount of female surfers out and about enjoying the surf - super kudos to them and the role models they are!!

Considering the time of year, the beach was never overcrowded and there was plenty of space for everyone, although to be fair, it might still be early in the season and the weather wasn't exactly blistering hot.

Definitely would come back to this part of Portugal and I was as ever, super impressed by how friendly the Portuguese are. So much so, that whilst you are butchering their language, they are keen to point you in the right direction, which only encourages you to learn more.
