Itinerary and highlights
This charming hamlet of white houses is enclosed in 14th century walls. When King Dinis married Isabella of Aragon in 1282, Óbidos was one of his wedding gifts.
Next to a radiant beach, in a large bay, this fishing town is a popular summer resort that has lost some of its original character, where you can still see fishermen wearing plaid shirts and women in countless layered skirts. Nazaré is also known by having the biggest waves in the world!
The Dominican monastery of Santa Maria da Vitória in Batalha is a masterpiece of Gothic architecture, famous for its Manueline elements.
