The region

The West region www.rt-oeste.pt is one of the
most beautiful in Portugal with splendid and
diversified landscapes. Here you will find small
towns and secular cities. The most
characteristic glass and ceramic handcraft. In
some places you still can buy the agricultural
products directly from its producer. Vast pine
and eucalyptus forests. Fishing ports where
you can acquire fish and fresh seafood.
Beaches of fine and golden sand, some
completely deserted, and the gastronomy and
the most refined wines.
Also a great advantage is the proximity of
Lisbon’s city and its international airport
(aprox. 80km).
