Around the West Coast
In this WHY PORTUGAL 5 I want to make you known one other very interesting investment area in the country THE WEST COAST The passing of time left in the region of the WEST COAST a remarkable track of Medieval Castles, Renaissance Palaces, Manor Houses, Churches, Convents that allow any visitor an encounter with the representations of bygone times. It is easy for the visitor to combine artistic and cultural itineraries with visits very close to wildly beautiful beaches, such as Ericeira
Another highlight of this region is Óbidos, a magnificent Medieval Town surrounded by town walls dating back to the Moorish occupation that astonishes all its visitors. The canyon of Nazaré is a puzzling geological phenomenon which is 5.000 meters deep and about 230 km long. It is the cause of such incredibly monster waves, attracting top surfers from all over the world. But only for the brave! Ericeira and Nazaré has a calm lifestyle which helps you easily forget about the bustle of the bigger cities. Here time moves more slowly and everything happens naturally, with a closer connection to nature, and healthier as well. The ocean and the beaches call out for exercise and an outdoors lifestyle and the people are gentle and simple, providing new arrivals with a truly communal spirit that makes it so much easier to fit in. In THE WEST COAST, and the areas around Ericeira or Nazaré are seeing growing demand on the part of investors in seaside real estate in Portugal. What is it that draws them? Giant waves, typical fishing villages and the traditional cuisine. And what could the downside be? These are cooler areas and the sea is rougher than along the coast further south. But at the end of the day, to each his own, it is up to investors to decide.
Whatever you need, I'm here.
ABOUT ERICEIRA Because this little town has it all: typical Portuguese streets, food, history, culture and of course, some of the best beaches in the area.Ideal for families, retired, holidays and surfers, Ericeira is truly something special. Take a 40 minutes’ drive away from Lisbon and you will find Ericeira. Apart from being a surfing mecca, it is also a great place for living, enjoying sandy beaches of Portugal and spending time with friends or family.Ericeira is a lovely Portuguese fishing town which offers a number of things to do for everyone, both day and night. It is one of the most beautiful seaside resorts on the coast.Is a multicultural town with much to offer in terms of food and culture. Before becoming a famous surfing spot, Ericeira was very popular because of its restaurants and in particular, seafood. Ericeira offers both a chilled daytime scene and a lively nightlife, along with excellent options and facilities. Is surrounded by hills and valleys that are worth discovering on a walk or by bike. Near the shoreline, you can find trails that lead you through a natural landscape.

WINE The West (called LISBOA as far as the demarcated wine region is concerned) has a long history in national viticulture. In this demarcated region, we find native grapes and some international varieties that allow the wine producers to create beautiful blends. As one of the largest wine regions in Portugal, in the south of the West you can find full-bodied, aromatic red wines with a precious alcoholic value. In the north, lively wines are sought when they are young, intense and balanced while they are old, but also fruity white wines In this region are produced light wines DOC, as well as the Wine Brandy of Lourinhã and, recently, new sparkling wines. Such economic, tourist, cultural and wine diversity wealth must be represented, promoted through the “Vine and Wine Routes”. In 1989, the Óbidos Wine Area was created, covering the area of Bombarral, Cadaval, Óbidos and Caldas da Rainha, and the Alenquer, Arruda and Torres Wine Area, in order to enshrine the quality and prestige of Western wines.
