Lavadores Beach

Highlight • Beach

Iconic rocks, polished by the constant Atlantic waves and wind, line this segment of the coast, interspersed with sandy coves, just steps from the coastal bike route

Along the Atlantic you drive around the curve on the excellently developed bike path, always along the shore and arrive in the middle of Porto. The sunsets are spectacular.

Beautiful beach, towards the south the rocks, where you can sit out of the wind and towards the north the beach with a view of Porto.

You should definitely stop here for a moment. Hopefully, it will be preserved and not built over as well.

Canide Norte Beach

Highlight • Beach

There are several stretches of promenade, but it is even more fun to go down to the sea near the rocks.

This tour goes along the beach. Beautiful to drive, thanks to the great cycle paths. However, these do not lead to Porto, but end well before.
But cycling to Porto is no problem.😎👍
