Praia de Vila Chã

Portugal, Portugal

---

Praia de Vila Chã is a small, quiet sandy beach in the fishing village of Vila Chã, in the Vila do Conde municipality along Portugal’s northern Costa Verde.

The beach sits in a relatively sheltered bay, with a modest stretch of soft sand bordered by rocky areas and a small fishing‑cove feel, where you can still see traditional boats on the shore. It has good facilities for a small beach, including a bar, sunbed and umbrella rentals, showers, lifeguards in summer, and nearby parking, while also holding a Blue Flag and “Quality Gold” recognition for water and management standards.

Because of its calm atmosphere, clear waters, and proximity to Porto, it is popular with locals and short‑trip visitors who want a simple, family‑friendly Atlantic beach with a traditional maritime touch.
