About the Beach
What is Praia do Pôr do Sol 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 Vila do Conde.
Praia do Pôr do Sol Beach displays a medium extension sand, separated from the neighbor beaches by two rock formations to the north and by Restaurante Caximar1 to the south.
The beach is situated near restaurants and cafes, in a very busy area of the seaside road.
A long car park is available nearby, however, the affluence of people during summer season make the task of parking into a challenge.
The access is granted through Rua Dom Dinis2 or along Avenida Infante Dom Henrique3.
