About Nazaré

Nazaré has long been a popular destination for tourists, with it's delightful mix of beautiful beaches, strong traditional culture, relaxing atmosphere and interesting history as a fishing village. Situated on the Costa de Prata (Silver Coast), it is considered by some to be among the best beaches in Portugal.

In recent years, Nazaré has become famous for big wave tow-in surfing and now attracts some of the world's top pro surfers (there is also good surfing on normal waves on nearby beaches). In November, 2011, Hawaiian surfer Garrett McNamara surfed on the Praia do Norte a record-breaking giant wave: 23.8 m (78 feet). He then broke his own record here again in 2013.

Nearby are many interesting places to visit, including the historic Farol da Nazaré / Forte de São Miguel Arcanjo (Nazaré lighthouse / Fort of the Archangel St Michael) and the famous Alcobaça Monastery is just 13km away. Nazaré Hostel is easily reached by bus from Lisbon or Porto and is around one hour and twenty minutes from Lisbon by car.
