About the Beach
What is Praia do Zimbral Beach?
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 Lourinhã.
Praia do Zimbral Beach presents a strip of sand with medium extension, north and south bounded by rock formations.
Attention to tidal periods is a must because the sand gets fully immersed during high tide.
The cliff top resembles a chessboard due to the format of several farm fields here existing.
This beach is ideal for those looking to relax without the hustle and bustle of other places.
Access is granted through the sands of the neighbor beaches.
