The image depicts a twilight coastal scene in Aldoar, Foz do Douro e Nevogilde, Portugal, centered on the Forte de São Francisco Xavier do Queijo. The sky exhibits a gradient from dark blue at the zenith to a pale orange-blue near the horizon, populated by numerous small, dark avians. Light levels are consistent with civil twilight. The Atlantic Ocean features moderate wave activity along a sandy beach and a rocky shoreline. The Forte de São Francisco Xavier do Queijo (Castle of Cheese), a stone fort structure, is situated on a rocky promontory extending into the sea, right of the image's center. Several dark forms, possibly individuals in the water (surfers), are discernible near the fort. A concrete promenade borders the sandy beach on the left, accessible via concrete steps descending to the sand. An estimated 5-7 individuals are present on the promenade: one is seated on a low concrete barrier near the stairs, a group of three is walking away from the viewer (one pushing a stroller), and another individual walks solitary further along the path. Distant urban structures with visible artificial illumination line the coastline beyond the promenade. Natural rock formations are integrated into the beach and the promenade's edge.
