Shield Or, a heraldic fountain, surrounded by a circle of eight corn cobs Gules leaved Vert, in chief a dove Argent nimbed Gules. Mural crown Argent with three visible towers (village rank) and white scroll with inscription in black capitals "ÁGUAS BOAS".

The dove is representing the Holy Spirit, probably being the local patron saint. The fountain is representing the "good waters" (Port.: águas boas) and thus canting.
