If you don’t fancy the surf at Carcavelos then Praia da Torre may be a better option as it is not only more sheltered from the swell but often less crowded. With a lifeguard service during the summer months this makes Praia da Torre a popular family option.

Whilst the water quality at Praia da Torre is reasonable (and carefully monitored) it is still a mix of water from the river and the ocean. The seawater only becomes what you would describe as clean from Estoril and west.
