A natural retreat where water, tranquillity and beautiful scenery create a unique experience in the heart of inland Portugal.
Known as the "Princess of the Alva", Côja has earned its reputation among all who visit. Located in the municipality of Arganil, the river beach of Côja is a destination that can be enjoyed throughout the year. During the summer, it becomes the perfect setting for refreshing swims and relaxing moments by the river. The weir keeps the waters calm, while the sandy riverbanks invite visitors to lay down a towel and enjoy the surroundings, whether by taking a pedal boat ride or paddling along the river in a canoe. In winter, the landscape changes, but its charm remains. Poplar and alder trees provide shade and freshness, even on the brightest days. For those seeking peace and quiet, this is a place where nature can be experienced at its purest — free from rush and noise, accompanied only by the gentle sound of the river and the feeling that time has slowed down.
