A Praia da Rainha é uma praia de águas calmas e com um areal de pequena dimensão, encaixada entre falésias, em pleno centro da Vila de Cascais. Esta praia deve o seu nome à Rainha D. Amélia, que ali ia a banhos durante as estadias da família real em Cascais. Localizada na lateral de uma das ruas mais antigas do centro histórico de Cascais - a Rua Frederico de Arouca, mais conhecida por rua Direita, esta praia tem uma envolvente única onde permanece o comércio de rua e se pode desfrutar de um leque variado e diversificado de serviços, desde restaurantes a hotéis, lojas, entre outros. O acesso é exclusivamente pedonal, fazendo desta praia um local privilegiado para os turistas que estão alojados na zona envolvente. Durante a época balnear é uma praia vigiada e sinalizada e dispõe de um Posto de Primeiros Socorros.
