Praia de Lavadores

"From the other side of the river lies beach Lavadores together with Cabedelo-Gaia area which is basically a small hike along the beach. Lavadores seems really beautiful but if you search for beach to swim, don't choose this one. It's quite dangerous because of all the rocks that are on the beach and in the water. Also, it's windy and waves are huge sometimes. When we were there, it was impossible to get into the water under these conditions. We could just sunbathe on the beach and watch from the bar with a drink. Although, it's hard to swim there, Lavadores belongs among the most beautiful beaches around Porto and you definitely shouldn't miss it."
