ABOUT THE SILVER COAST
The Silver Coast in Portugal, or Costa de Prata, is a stunning stretch of coastal towns on the western side of Portugal, neighbouring the Atlantic Ocean. The region remains largely unknown and therefore untouched by tourism, meaning those who do visit can bask in the extraordinary “silver” sand.
Another of the many reasons to love the Silver Coast in Portugal is its proximity to Portugal’s major cities. With Lisbon to the south and Porto to the north, the Silver Coast is well situated in between both of Portugal’s largest urban centres. At the same time, it is inexpensive, authentic, and relatively undiscovered.
The Silver Coast is home to some of the best beaches you’ll ever see in Portugal. Since it’s away from the main crowd of the country, the beaches here are wilder and more pristine. Also, being popular for fishing is a great place to try local cuisine and experience the culture.
The cuisine from the Silver Coast in Portugal is some of the finest that Europe has to offer and forms an integral part of the region’s culture. The area has a rich heritage, and tourists love the narrow, picturesque streets of the towns and villages that dot the countryside. The regional agriculture also adds an authentic touch, with numerous small farms, vineyards, windmills as well as fruit trees. Many local farmers grow soft fruits such as grapes, melons, pumpkins, and maize.

The open-plan layout of the main house creates a welcoming atmosphere, perfect for spending quality time together as a family. Whether you're cooking up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen or gathering around the large dining table for a hearty meal, Mountain Mist Retreat offers the ideal setting for creating cherished memories with your loved ones.
Outdoors, the private swimming pool provides endless hours of fun and relaxation for children of all ages. Parents can lounge on the comfy sofas while keeping a watchful eye on their little ones as they splash and play in the refreshing waters.
