Hero Background

Those who don't row have already rowed: the beaches, the fishing trips and the fish - a walk (Balão Mágico)

The fishing community of Costa Nova is the heartbeat of this charismatic beach. Well-known for its "palheiros" – houses with colorful stripes on a white background – even the history of these emblematic constructions is often unknown to visitors. This tour aims to delve deep into the roots of these beaches and explore some of the most emblematic places from their past and present, including the artisanal fishing pier and the fishermen's quarter. Don't miss this opportunity!
