The town's own beach, tucked below the fishing harbour and sheltered by the breakwater, the safest place to swim with children.
Right below the old town and the Largo das Ribas, Praia dos Pescadores sits beside the working fishing harbour that gives it its name. The breakwater calms the water, making it the most reliable place in Ericeira for a family swim.
It is steps from cafés, ice cream and the heart of town, so it is the natural choice for a relaxed beach day without a car. On bigger winter swells a surf peak appears, but most of the year it is simply the town beach.
