In-Depth Information
Nazaré, an Atlantic-coast fishing town turned resort, is both black-shawl traditional and
beach-friendly. Several other worthy sights are within easy day-trip distance of Nazaré
(NAH-zah-ray). You can drop by Batalha to see its monastery, the patriotic pride and ar-
chitectural joy of Portugal. If the spirit moves you, the pilgrimage site at Fátima is nearby.
Alcobaça has Portugal's largest church (and saddest romance). And Portugal's incredibly
cute walled town of Óbidos is just down the road.
