Foz do Rio Mondego
The longest river that rises and flows into the national territory (232 km) meets the sea in the city of Figueira da Foz, a fishing port and also a place for beaches, casino and tourism. The final section of the Mondego River runs between rice paddies, to finally meet the Atlantic Ocean. The river is "defended" on the right bank by the Santa Catarina Fort.
