Nazare Sightseeing Tours

Nazare is a perfect example where nature, history, and culture are mised into one whole. Known for the most significant waves at North Praia, which are among the biggest waves in the world, Nazare has thousands of surfers and watchers annually. The town also has an old town constructed in the fishermen’s architecture and small streets that make users want to wander around. Regarding the peculiarities of the local cuisine, the freshest and the most delicious, in my opinion, is seafood. This point should be another interesting place to visit. The friendliness of the Portuguese and the atmosphere they create is equally essential for the tourists to have an unforgettable holiday in Nazare.

As much as there are historical sites and palaces in Nazare, most of the time, they are free of charge, but others charge a token to be used to maintain such heritages. It is used to meet minor expenses of maintaining and preserving heritage sites so that people can come here and see what marvelous places they are. As for the entrance fees, one should clarify the information in advance and, if possible, buy the necessary tickets to avoid crowds and have a more effective plan for the visit.

The best time to visit Nazare depends only on your wishes. For groups of people who like to avoid tourist crowds, it is better to go to the attractions during working days, as fewer people will be around. Meanwhile, numerous events, local markets, and various types of activities might be available during the weekends, making the atmosphere even more exciting. It is also good to take note of other festivities around the time of travel because these can also add to the general flavor of the country. 

Indeed, it is possible to visit Nazare for one day only, though it is better if the tourists plan to stay nearby or arrive from Lisbon. Thus, it is possible to open the most popular attractions here, for example, the cliffs in the Sítio, the famous waves near Praia do Norte, and the old town. Food-related sites can also be incorporated into a day trip, such as fresh seafood. However, a longer period is advisable for clients who wish to integrate into the community more and spend most of their time at the shore.

Nazare is rather famous for its tourist attractions partly because of surfing, and also due to summer, so you will surely meet many people there during these periods. However, the town has tried to maintain its originality, thus retaining its rich cultural feel. Off the beaten path and relatively unconquered, there’s a gallery of unseen but no less splendid views and areas to be revealed. In these areas, one gets a chance to interact with the locals and feel the true touch of the Nazare people’s normal behavior. One does not have to stick to the places mentioned above and times to experience the real essence of Nazare.

Yes, it was very easy to travel around on foot since Nazare is not that large of a city, and many tourist attractions are within comfortable walking distance. Other transport facilities include public transport like local buses and hired cabs. Longer distances or a sightseeing tour can be covered by bicycles or scooters that you can also rent quickly and, importantly, ecologically. This gives the guests adequate time to explore the area around the city of Nazare without the necessity of owning a car and also helps the growth of the locale.
