Ericeira, Portugal - Foodie Travel Guide

Ericeira, less than an hour from Lisbon, is a respite from the bustling Portuguese capital. Situated on the Atlantic Ocean, the city was dominated for centuries by the fishermen who took their boats out every day and brought back their catch.

While fishing boats still ply the waters, today Ericeira is better known as a surfer's haven. The city is home to Europe's only World Surfing Reserve. Wave riders come from all over Europe and the world to test their mettle on the water.

With surfers come a laid back lifestyle, concerned with healthy eating and living. So, Ericeira has become something of an oddity in Portugal, especially for such a small city. While there are plenty of traditional tascas where you can get gramdma's Portuguese dishes, there's also a surprising number of healthy eateries and
places with vegetarian and vegan options.aster the art of note-taking with this extensive guide. Available in PDF format.
