Has lots of known beaches like Costa da Caparica, Praia da Saúde, Cabana do Pescador, Fonte da Telha and lots of others. Golf, surf, bodyboarding or kitesurf are sports that we usually see at this part of the coast.

  • Puerto Rico has its roots in the Tainos , Spainards and African.

    It is very normal to see a guy playing Falamenco music in the old city.

    Its also normal to see an Indian Taino Festival and it is also normal to see a bunch of guys paying conga drums in any corner. Specially near the beach.
