Resumo: Coastal settlements in Portugal are routinely hit by storms, some of which produce significant overwash, leading to severe floods. In this study we focus on the possible damages Vale da Telha settlement could incur in the event of severe overwash and flooding following a storm. It was found that of the 222 elements comprising the settlement, roughly 70% were at risk of flooding. Most of the areas classified as Beaches and Invasive species forest are within the risk area. To reduce this scenario, artificial construction should not be carried out below the 11m altitude threshold.
