Highlights
  • Fortaleza de Peniche, Portugal - In Portugal’s Centro region, Peniche is a beach destination with many feathers in its cap. First, the raging sea and the lie of the land make this surf central. The best of many supreme beaches is Praia dos Supertubos, which has a tubular wave fit for big time international events.

Peniche has also been a port since the Early Modern Age, when a fort was constructed to defend it. This monument has an absorbing history, first as a maritime defence and then a prison during the Estado Novo regime in the 20th century. And since Peniche is still a fishing port, the fish and seafood could not be fresher. And on top of everything, you also have to make time for a voyage to the Berlingas Islands, a natural reserve off the coast.

Well organized and nice staff. Nice boats - The staff is nice. The catamaran boat that took us to the Berlengas island was nice and safe. The other boat the showed the surroundings of the island was good and the staff nice and talkative about explaining the various beautiful grottoes. The nice boy that took us to show the island tracks was great about explaining the interesting island story. In all a nice experiment that would recommend entirely.

Best day trip - We went with Feeling Berlengas who were excellent. We walked to fort and then went on glass bottom boat for a view from the sea and see the Island from the water. We walked to the tip of Island and lazed by the beach (water too cold for me). Awesome day. You stay for only 4 hours but that was plenty. We walked to fort, had a look around and was back at jetty within an hour.

The island of Berlengas itself is... - <p>The island of Berlengas itself is beautiful, photos do not do it justice! I definitely recommend going to the island, however did not feel as though the tour was explained properly in the outline. I, along with the other members of the tour, felt as though we were ripped off. The cost of the tour only included the return trip in a 4WD to the port where we would leave for the island. We got to the port to leave and were told that the tour hadnt been booked and that we had to wait for them to find us a time slot. We were then told that we had to pay for the boat to take us to the island as well as the optional trip to the grottos. One couple on the trip had a baby and were told that they could easily take a pram up to the island, we were not informed that the tour of the island was more of a hike, and that there was absolutely no way that a pram would fit on the path. This couple ended up forgoing their tour. <br/> It would have been just as easy, and definitely cheaper, to simply get a bus to the port and organise our own tour with one of the companies there. Didn't even get a water!</p>
