Carcavelos beach - Carcavelos

Just 24 km from Lisbon, Carcavelos beach is one of the most popular and busy in the city. During the summer, it´s best to arrive as early as possible to prevent flooding and ensure a good spot.

To make a mix of foot on a  board and foot on dry land, it´s not a bad idea to follow the 15 min path Mafra and experience the great traditional pastries. Also recommended is a stop in one of the village"s seafood restaurants, especially in that which are closest to the sea.

North Beach - Nazaré

The North Beach became famous for its giant waves, especially after November 2011. It was the year that Garrett McNamara surfed one that would be called the biggest wave of the year by Billabong XXL Global Big Wave Awards, giving the timely and turbulent seas at ​​Nazaré a even greater international exposure.

The Suberco Belvedere is one of the crossing points, from where it enjoys an unobstructed panoramic view of the coast and the beach. Regional cuisine is not to ignore - and it"s not worth leaving without sampling some fine grilled sardines or a traditional stew.
