Additional Information

A trip to Aveiro is akin to immersing yourself in the aquatic landscape of Centro de Portugal. Formed in the 15th century as the coastline retreated, leaving sandbars across an 11,000 hectare area, the ‘Ria’ in Aveiro evolved into a lagoon. Today, it has grown into a bustling network of channels and isles, earning Aveiro its name as the ‘Venetian Portugal’.

The waters are a sanctuary to numerous species like lampreys, clams, storks, herons and various birds of prey and mammals. It’s such a rich ecosystem that the Lagoon has gained protected status.

In Aveiro, life revolves around its 47 kilometres of water adjoining the sea. The ‘Ria’ acts as a silvery mirror, reflecting the vibrantly coloured moliceiro boats and Art-Nouveau buildings, adding to its charm and singularity. Explore the city by navigating the lagoon’s canals on board a moliceiro, the waterways acting as liquid streets.
