It's 2 hours from Coimbra and believe it... it really looks like a beach straight out of a resort (it even has a floating pool in the middle of the river)

Notícias de Coimbra9 September 2026 at 13:09

The fluvial beach of Cabeça Ruiva is located in the parish of Fontes, in the municipality of Abrantes, on the left bank of the Castelo de Bode reservoir. The location is approximately two hours' travel from Coimbra.

The space has been compared to a typical resort beach, standing out for its differentiated infrastructure. The most notable element is a pool that floats directly in the middle of the river, offering visitors a unique leisure and swimming experience.

The left bank region of the Castelo de Bode reservoir has been developing as a tourist destination, taking advantage of the natural resources of the area to attract visitors seeking contact with nature and water activities.

Ebola epidemic in DR Congo hits tragic milestone and WHO warns of lack of resources and transmission "out of control"

The Ebola epidemic in the Democratic Republic of Congo, caused by the Bundibugyo virus, has become the deadliest in the country and the second largest worldwide, with 6,686 confirmed cases, 3,226 deaths and a case fatality rate of 48.3%. WHO warned that the outbreak remains "out of control" and urgently called for an additional 5,000 health workers and 1,600 hospital beds, considering that current capacity — 4,000 operational staff and 1,400 beds — is insufficient. The virus is now spreading across six provinces in an area exceeding 630,000 square kilometres, with internal risk classified as "very high" and elevated risk for neighbouring countries such as Angola. Vaccination of frontline teams with the Ervebo drug has already immunised more than 2,000 professionals, but WHO is calling for new international partners to be mobilised to prevent the collapse of the health response.
