Right by Matosinhos town; seafood restaurants line Rua Heróis de França behind it

A wide Atlantic beach where the waves roll straight in, with surf schools along the promenade and gentle breaks for beginners. In the lanes behind, charcoal smoke from fish grills starts rising by lunchtime. About 30 minutes from the centre by metro, it makes an easy half day.
