Nazare is known for its giant waves, which attract professional surfers during the winter months.
From the town it's a hike down to the old fort, which now serves as an overlook.
A lot of people take tuk-tuks down to check it out.

The viewpoint at the old fort is open. For 2 Euros, you can check out the museum inside, which explains how the topography of the ocean floor helps to produce the record waves at Nazare.
You can also check out the surf museum inside, which is full of surfboards and memories from the surfers who’ve conquered the waves here.

One beach in Nazare, Praia do Norte, is accessible by several paths down from the overlook, which are full of wildflowers in the summer. Even in the summer, non-pros are advised to stay out of the water here due to the currents and waves. You’ll find great rock formations, and it’s a perfect place to relax on the sand.

The other beach, Praia da Nazare, is on the south side of the overlook. It's a much better swimming spot, with much more manageable waves.

Nazare's town center is full of restaurants and stores, and a historic cathedral.

Consider combining a day trip from Lisbon to Nazare with a stop in Obidos, an ancient hilltop town nearby!
