Shield Or, a fess wavy Azure semy of wavelets Argent, in chief two grapevines Purpure leaved Vert in fess, in base three billets Gules ordered 2:1. Mural crown Argent with four visible towers (town rank) and white scroll with inscription in black initials "AGUADA DE BAIXO".
Meaning:
The billets, here probably considered to be bricks, are representing the local ceramic industry, being the main business line. Grapevines and rice ears are representing agriculture and especially viticulture. The barrulets wavy are representing Cértima River.
