Edition 60 - Nazaré

These are our suggestions of a heavenly sleep to the soothing sound of the waves! As any popular beach resort, Nazaré has many options in terms of accommodation, designed for all tastes and budgets. 

The region of Nazaré has always been extremely rich in all sorts of fish varieties. No wonder that fish plays a major role in the gastronomic tradition of Nazaré. Fish comes in many shapes and it can be cooked in several different ways: grilled, in the oven or simply dry. Authenticity is the motto.

Nazaré is the finest example of the relentless power of Mother Nature.

Nowadays, the whole economy of Nazaré evolves around surf and the big waves. But why are the waves so incredibly big in Nazaré?
