We did visit here a few years ago but it seems much nicer this time. We got there by bus & then walked all along the beach side & then back to the City via the mouth of the river. It's a great walk...

A beach just opposite the fort at Foz do Douro. It has pebbles and coarse sand. At times it can get windy. However, it has basic amenities including toilets etc. it is separated from another small beach by a jetty at the end of which is a light house. Clean and maintained. A good activity for a sunny day.

Fait warning, the beach is unattended. There were no umbrellas for rent and no shade at all. So be prepared or get sunburned 😜
