About the Beach
Praia Fluvial de Marvão sits on the banks of the Sever stream, in a deep valley in the São Mamede mountain range, between the Spanish border and the medieval village of Marvão, considered one of the most beautiful in Portugal. Cool, clean stream water, surrounded by trees and schist, creates a perfect natural oasis for hot Alentejo summer days. The nearby Marvão waterfall is a stunning natural complement.
