Praia da Nazaré
Nazaré beach, located in a beautiful bay, is very popular with tourists and surrounded by lush cliffs, where a panoramic elevator operates. Every Saturday, from May to June, there are demonstrations of the Xávega art, a type of dragnet fishing on the verge of extinction, characterized by casting a net approximately 500 meters from the coast, which is then pulled ashore by oxen. Also typical are the so-called "paneiros" (pans) placed on the sand, where the fish is dried. The main avenue becomes a tourist attraction not only for the beach but also for its commercial and food areas.
