Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
My neighborhood is extremely peaceful. Located approx. halfway between the surfing beaches of Nazaré(8km) and the beautiful town of São Martinho do Porto (3km) it is situated on a ridge, with many beautiful hiking trails that follow the coastline. Mountain bikers also use these trails. There are cafes and a restaurant within 1.5 km, and the nearest grocery store is less than 5 km. There is a gym/health club 2 km away, and a public swimming pool in Nazaré. The town of São Martinho is situated on a bay, so the water is calm and it is very safe to swim there. The street adjacent to the bay has a multitude of restaurants, shops, cafés, and gelaterias to choose from. There is a boardwalk/path that circles the bay, and dogs can be walked on a leash. It is a 5 km walk along a trail overlooking the ocean from my home to the center of town.
