Ericeira is located a few kilometers north of the World Heritage site of Sintra and about 30 km south of the resort of Peniche. Cascais and Estoril with the Casino, multiple golf courses, and celebrity hide-aways is also only short drive away. Ericeira is known for its surfing, hosting a round of the World Surf Championships, and home to (allegedly) the best surf beach in Europe - Ribeira d'Ilhas - directly below the flat. For those looking to explore Portugal's cultural and touristic delights, the walled city of Obidos, Sintra with its Moorish castle and fairy-tale Palacio da Pena, Batalha and Alcobaca, two stunning monasteries/cathedrals and Fatima – a place of pilgrimage for millions of catholics and tourists alike are all within easy reach. Not to mention Lisbon, one of the prettiest capital cities in Europe.
