Porto - Matosinhos

The essence of the Portuguese coast

Located in the metropolitan area of Porto, the fisherman’s town of Matosinhos has become a reference for beach tourism and a privilege option for those looking for tranquillity and good services at a comfortable distance from the city.

Matosinhos has exellent connections with Porto, but keeps the charm of the Portuguese fishermen’s towns, with its typical wooden promenade that goes all over its coastline.

Here there are also several monuments and touristic attractions, such as Castelo do Queijo, Porto Aquarium, Senhor do Padrão or Piscina das Marés, the breathtaking salty water pools in the ocean, work of the architect Álvaro Siza.
