Aveiro District trip planner

Known mostly for its developed coastline, Alveiro District attracts surfers, sailors, and kayakers. The city of Alveiro, a modestly sized urban center noted for its architecture and proximity to fine beaches, features a network of navigable canals cutting through its center, inspiring frequent comparisons to Venice. Built around a shallow lagoon, the city thrives as a popular sightseeing destination and salt-processing center. Begin your tour at the lagoon, where you can watch swan-necked boats prepare to set off in search of kelp, used locally as a fertilizer. Beyond the busy city spreads a landscape of extensive salt pits, quiet country roads, and vast wetland areas best explored on guided horseback rides. Aveiro District is in Northern Portugal.
