Peniche Half-Day Tours

Peniche half-day tours are carefully created to show the main attractions quickly. We’ll see the city center and main beaches: Praia de Supertubos and Baleal Beach. You can't try surfing within a short time, but you can still watch the surfers. Must-visit spots of the program are the architectural monuments of the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Healing and the Church of St.Peter in the Baroque style. Peniche is a romantic spot that creates a more variable impression of Portugal, even for a short visit.

Peniche is cosy, so the best way to move around it is on foot. However, if you are here for only half a day, it may be worth considering the option of an organized tour. This way you will save time, and see all the main attractions. Another benefit of the ready-made tour is that you do not have to worry about getting around. You will also avoid the need to use a taxi. Forget about unnecessary stress, especially if you don’t know the language well and trust your vacations to the professional.

Peniche local cuisine is primarily seafood. On the menu of most of the restaurants, you would find dishes from local regional and intercontinental cuisine. With the variety of options available, everyone can find a suitable solution for themselves. As for local cuisine, in addition to traditional Portuguese dishes, you can try a huge selection of seafood, most of which are simply prepared on the grill, or you can try one of the variations of stews with vegetables. Among the traditional dishes of this region are Bacalhau a Lagareiro, salted cod, and Caldeirada de Peixe. 

Of course, the town is relatively small, its main attractions are within walking distance. Still, there are few hidden from the eyes of a curious tourist. However, as part of our tours, we will show you the best points for observing the Atlantic Ocean with stunning sunsets along the way where there will be no other tourists. In these places, you can enjoy unity with nature and take stunning photographs, preserving the memory of the trip. Since we are talking about a historical tour, we will show you the ruins of the old Fort as well as the remains of the former medieval heritage of Portugal on the coast.

The number of tourists who come to the city depends on the time of year. In the summer, there are much more people. Come in winter to enjoy the city in a free atmosphere. If you’re planning a sea holiday, you should come in the summer. At this time, you can take surfing lessons at one of the schools located on the coast or simply engage in water sports and swim at the same time, remember that even in summer, the water in the Atlantic Ocean is quite remarkable.
