Description of objectModern holiday home for a relaxed use. Positioned 800 meters from the center of Caminha,with terrace overlooking the mouth of the Minho river, this home allows you to experience the proximity of the mountain and the beach. It has 2 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, full kitchenette, lounge and office / bedroom. It also has wide field lawn with a swiming pool and garden.
Location of objectLocated between Moledo and Caminha, overlooking the mouth of the Minho river, this home allows you to experience the proximity of the mountain and the beach. This town has its annual festival which is always well advertised in shops and cafes. Look out for the arches of coloured lights in the streets. Perhaps one of the most beautiful festivals is the Corpus Christi procession in Caminha (June) when all the town´s streets are covered in designs made of petals and flowers.
Other than the opportunity of swimming at the house swiming pool or in the river, the nearest beaches are just south of Caminha at Moledo and Vila Praia de Ancora. Both fantastic curving bays with excellent opportunities for surfing.
Town: Portugal, Caminha, CaminhaSituated in a sheltered location at the mouth of the river just a kilometre or so from the open sea, Caminha is a delightful old town and small fihing port. The main square is centrally located surrounded by a number of interesting buildings including the town hall and the large clock tower. The square is the centre of activity and most sunny days will see locals and visitors sitting at one of the cafe terraces watching the world go by
The large weekly market is a short walk from here (opposite the square and on the left) stretching along the river bank. The indoor market in the same place is probably the best place in the area to buy fresh fish with supplies replenished throughout the day. Although there are plenty of small shops of all varieties in the town you will probably find it most convenient to use the Pingo Doce supermarket down on the main road near the ferry to Spain. This is a chain of moderately sized supermarkets found all over Portugal and offers a good selection of both fresh and processed foods alike. Always a safe bet wherever you are.
The ferry to Spain (from the square, turn right) leaves on the hour from Caminha until around 7pm depending on season. On the other side La Guardia is the nearest town, about three kilometres up the hill and has excellent fish restaurants clustered around its small fishing harbour. Alternatively, take a walk down river on the other side and take advantage of the sandy beaches along the river. Water temperatures here are a few degrees warmer than the sea. There is no beach as such in Caminha, the nearest one being at Moledo just to the south of the river mouth about 4 kilometres by road.
Surprisingly for its size, Caminha has a superb nightlife with a number of bars and discotheques, particularly in Rua Direita where the Tourist Office is located. During the day it all looks pretty inconspicuous but come midnight the whole street comes alive. Locally \\\\\\\'Âlfandega\\\\\\\' is considered the best of the bunch. Find out more about Caminha
