Outdoor Pursuit & Activities
Grandola Courela is situated just 10 minutes away from the centre of the region, offering great opportunities for site-seeing. This area is commended for its vast portfolio of flawless beaches, such as Comporta Beach, which can be found around half an hour away from the villa. Complete with soft golden sand and sapphire blue water; this is a fantastic place to visit both for those looking to relax in the sun, and those interested in trying out the various watersports offered.
If you consider yourself to be a European wine fanatic, you must take the time to visit Quinta do Brejinho, only 15 minutes away. This prestigious establishment focuses on using natural resources, ensuring that crops are nourished by sunlight and that the soil is rich in essential minerals. Using this method, the winery is able to produce a wealth of amazing drinks without losing touch with traditional winemaking techniques. On a guided tour of the grounds, guests can broaden their understanding of how these products are manufactured, and learn more about natural wine making in the region.
Horse riding has become a very popular pastime amongst both locals and tourists, and Horses by the Beach is a nearby organisation that will give you the chance to take part during your stay. They will take you on a beautiful journey through the landscape, including across a local beach, offering you the opportunity to observe this area from an entirely new perspective.
This region is also well known for its food scene, making it a great holiday destination for passionate foodies. One of the region’s most recognised dishes is Azeitao, an indulgent semi-soft cheese that is typically made from unpasteurised sheep milk. This unusual cheese is often served with homemade bread and fresh fruit, and can be found in a variety of bars and restaurants. Definitely worth a try!

The Region
Comporta is surrounded by rice paddies, the ocean, sand dunes and pine forests. It's a unique place where you can connect with nature and live in the moment. Comporta has a rhythm and an ambience that are all it's own. This wild and unspoilt part of Portugal attracts an in-the-know international crowd, including renowned artists, designers, and A-listers.
Comporta has a remarkable diversity of natural systems with long stretches of beach, windswept dunes, scenic pine forests, salt marshes and rice paddies which become a vibrant green in June. The region is also characterized by rice fields and its main attraction, the Comporta beach: 20 kilometres of uninterrupted white sand, a beach lover’s paradise.
As with the rest of Portugal, you can expect sun-blessed weather year-round in Comporta. The best months of the year to visit Comporta for long beach stays are from June to September, while the spring and autumn months are still suitable for picnics or day trips.
ABOUT THE LISBON COAST
The Lisbon Coast is a sensational stretch of golden beaches, wave-lashed cliffs and vibrant seaside towns – but there's more to the Atlantic coastline than that. Delve beneath the surface to discover hidden coves, family-owned seafood restaurants and pristine natural parks.
The coast around Lisbon provides an easy, breezy escape from the capital, whose proximity has made it the stomping ground of kings for the last 1,000 years. In summer, Lisboistas stream into elegant Comporta and Cascais to escape the heat of the city; year-round, surfers hang loose on the coast, waiting for the rollers to crash down on the sand.
But while you're enjoying one of our fantastic villas on Lisbon Coast, you may well want to take some time out from all that sun worship to explore everything else the region has to offer – so we've put together this handy travel guide to give you a little help and inspiration!
