Aljezur
Aljezur is a municipality dominated by fishing and boasting a rich and diverse natural heritage. Located along the ocean coast and surrounded by cliffs, its main attractions are its beautiful beaches and charming historic center. From the castle, with its two imposing towers, one can see the plain bathed by the river and the successive hills leading up to Monte Clérigo beach. Still in the center, it's worth exploring the Fonte das Mentiras (Fountain of Lies), a magical and legendary place. Aljezur is also a land of traditions, such as the famous sea bathing, celebrated during the municipal holiday of August 29th, or the Sweet Potato Festival in October and November. Also noteworthy is the Fishermen's Festival in Arrifana, held on the last weekend of July.
