Figueira da Foz by rice paddies and salines, half-day from Coimbra

1 / 14

Overview

After pick up at the hotel in Coimbra, we will go to Figueira da Foz. We will visit Praia da Claridade, one of the favorite beaches of the Portuguese.

After taking a walk on its white sand and taking a few pictures, we will go to the salt pans. We will enter the Núcleo Museológico do Sal to know everything about salt and see first hand how it is produced. Before returning to Coimbra, we will cross the fields of Baixo Mondego, where you will be surprised by the extensive corn and rice plantations.

Following these roads, we will arrive at the Castle of Montemor for a short visit. Located in a strategic place on a hill, its walls have witnessed numerous struggles between Muslims and Christians.

Before finishing, we will indulge your stomach with the tasting of the typical Tentúgal pastry, one of the 7 wonders of Portuguese gastronomy. This sweet, strictly linked to the life of the convents, perfectly combines ingredients as classic as sugar, cinnamon, eggs and puff pastry.
