Zambujeira do Mar - Portugal 2024 (from above)

Zambujeira do Mar is a small town on the Alentejo coastline, famous for its stunning views and great beaches. It’s a typically charming Portuguese seaside town with the usual features, great beaches, life guards during the summer, and of course great local food in a town that isn’t suffering from mass tourism.
Zambujeira do Mar is also on the now famous Fisherman’s Trail of the Rota Vicentina, widely regarded as one of the best coastal walking routes in the world. The total length of the trail is over 226km. It’s possible to use Zambujeira do Mar as a base and walk in either the north or south direction to experience a shorted section of this stunning coastal route. For others, Zambujeira do Mar serves as a stopping point and rest stop, but there are many people that opt for shorter or one day hike!
The main beach in Zambujeira do Mar is named after the town, Praia da Zambujeira do Mar. It’s a beautiful natural beach split into two, a narrower beach surrounded by cliffs, and a much more expansive beach backed by dunes. Both are accessible from the town; at low tide you can walk between the two beaches as well.
