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 Cascais.
Praia da Poça Beach, also known as Praia de São João do Estoril Beach, has a thin and long sand.

The west area is filled with rock formations that difficult bathing.
At the center, a large ramp highlights from the sand and divides it into two.
