It's an Oceanic Beach in the northern hemisphere bathed by the Atlantic Ocean, located on the coast of Portugal - Iberian Peninsula - in the municipality of Viana do Castelo.

Praia da Ínsua Beach has a very extensive sand of about 1,2 km. The best spot for bathing is located to the south, by the dunes. To the north near the Mata Nacional da Gelfa1, flows the Ribeira da Ínsua2 or Ribeira da Gatenha3.
