The Monumento ao 25 de Abril is intended to commemorate the Carnation Revolution of April 25, 1974, which led to the fall of the dictatorial Salazar regime. The chain at the foot of the monument used to be hanging, but had to be taken down for safety reasons (chain swayed in strong winds). Nevertheless, this should symbolize the "breaking of the chains" and thus the way to freedom.

The coastal Camino de Santiago pilgrims trek through the hedonistic temptations of the affluent beach town. Here, just below toe Barrio dos Pescadores, next to the autocaravan overnight parking, the Âncora food festival beckons during the season

Small coastal chapel for the payers to the safe return of fishermen and sailors typically lined these dangerous Atlantic Ocean shores. Pilgrims along the coastal camino find shelter in this beautiful spot.

Ecovia Litoral Norte 🚲

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Lovely managed car-free section of the coastal trail. Smooth and well-paved, it is pleasant to ride and enjoy the views of the ocean all along to the west; just look out for pilgrims, and the occasional goat grazing and wandering across the trail.
