If you’re seeking a memorable experience in the Aveiro area, seize the chance to explore Barra Beach, Costa Nova, and the Vista Alegre Museum, capped off by a traditional lunch with the fishermen at Vagueira Beach.

Relish in a rare opportunity to connect with local fishermen and hear their tales as they cook a lunch made with freshly caught fish. Enjoy regional culinary delights, complemented by an exquisite local wine.

Note: If the sea’s conditions are appropriate, you’ll be able to observe the ‘Arte Xávega’ at Praia da Vagueira. ‘Arte Xávega’ is an ancient fishing technique where the fishers, utilizing a boat resembling a half-moon, cast their nets into the sea. You will get to see them haul in the catch with tractors’ help and sort out the fish that they’ll prepare for your meal. There’s an extra €15 charge per person for this activity, which needs confirmation. It starts at 7:00 AM and finishes at 2:00 PM.
