One of the best fish restaurants in Afurada. If you are craving seafood, you no longer need to go all the way to Matosinhos! Try their "percebes", barnacles in English.

A restaurant right on the beaches, at a 10-15 minutes walking distance from home on friendly back streets. Great quality, and the prices definitely don't reflect the location!

From the apartment I highly recommend you to take the "Marginal", the road along the river all the way to the famous bridge built by Eiffel. By car or by bicycle, you will not regret it!
