Poço Corga River Beach
river beaches
The bucolic landscapes, the colourful flowers and the chirping of the birds, offer close contact with nature.

Located along the serene bed of the Ribeira de Pera, Poço Corga River Beach offers visitors the peace and tranquility needed to recharge and rejuvenate both body and spirit.

The idyllic landscapes, blending the green of the Serra da Lousã with the blue sky, the colors of blooming flowers, and the songs of birds, provide a full connection with nature.

Next to the beach, a splendid, centuries-old oak grove provides essential shade over a picnic area. Visitors can also explore the Corga Olive Press Museum, a space preserving an ancient olive oil press structure believed to be around 400 years old.
