Nazaré is an ancient fishing town in one of the most interesting regions of Portugal for culture and history. In the holiday resort of Nazaré/Praia the beach is supervised in summer, many other beaches are a few minutes away by car. Praia do Norte beach has a wonderful dune landscape and an extensive pine forest (near our house) which is great for walks, although only practiced swimmers and surfers should go into the water. Cultural and historical attractions in and around Nazaré: in Sítio district there’s the old pilgrimage church of Nossa Senhora da Nazaré, trips to Alcobaça (church and monastery), Batalha (unfinished masterpiece of Manuelinic Gothic), Lisbon, Coimbra, Conimbriga (Roman excavations), Obidos and Tomar which we recommend! Leiria, Peniche, Aveiro, Evóra are also worth a visit.
