A few of our favourite homes in Nazaré
Discover Nazaré
Nazaré is three villages stacked on top of each other: Praia, down on the sand, with its striped tents and seafood restaurants; Sítio, on the clifftop, reached by a funicular built in 1889 that climbs the rock in three minutes to the Suberco viewpoint and the twelfth-century sanctuary that has drawn pilgrims here for eight hundred years; and Pederneira, the oldest and quietest of the three, with its own view back across the bay. What made this fishing village famous is out of sight — a submarine canyon running some 230 kilometres into the Atlantic and dropping more than four kilometres deep, funnelling swell straight onto Praia do Norte and producing, from October to March, the biggest surfable waves in the world, watched from the São Miguel Arcanjo lighthouse. Come in summer and the same beach is simply one of the best on the Portuguese coast, with fish still drying on wooden racks in the open air.

The Beach
Striped tents, golden sand and the slow rhythm of a Nazaré summer, only minutes from the door.

100 Foot Wave
The giant waves that made Nazaré famous, breaking below the lighthouse from October to March.

Cliffside Funicular
Built in 1889, a three-minute climb from the beach up to Sítio and the best view over the bay.

Old Town
Cliff-top chapels, an old sea fort and the medieval legend of the horseman who named the town.

Salt & Sun
Fish drying on wooden racks in the open sea air, a fishing tradition still kept alive on the sand.

Sea Swing
A wooden swing on the cliff edge facing the whole bay, best kept for the very end of the day.
