For a cool coastal town, continue north for two hours to Figueira da Foz, getting off Figueira da Foz station. It is known as the Queen of Beaches for its seaside bars and restaurants and its soft white sand.

If you get tired of the water, you can climb the Serra da Boa Viagem and have lunch in a picnic area in the shade of eucalyptus and pine trees.

A network of canals – which have earned Aveiro the nickname the Venice of Portugal – lined with rainbow-coloured buildings runs through the centre. You will also see colorful traditional boats called moliceiros boats which are used to collect algae.

Stroll through the center admiring the ornate tiled Art Nouveau buildings and the grandiose Aviero Cathedral, founded in 1493.

Porto: Port Wine and Palaces
