Sunlit Piggyback on Ponte de Lima Beach

On a sunlit Atlantic beach near Ponte de Lima in northern Portugal, a father gives his young daughter a playful piggyback ride along the foamy shoreline. The father wears a light blue linen shirt and beige shorts; the daughter wears a bright pink swimsuit and a straw hat, giggling with her arms around dad's neck. Wet sand gleams in golden-hour light as small waves roll in, leaving footprints and scattered seashells. In the distance, green cliffs rise and traditional Portuguese houses dot the coastline, while seagulls glide overhead. The mood is warm, joyful, and candid, with a natural, cinematic feel—low-angle perspective close to the ground to emphasize height and motion of the piggyback.
