To visit this small archipelago, made up of three groups of islets, you must take a boat from the Peniche marina. Berlenga Grande and Cerro da Velha, Estelas, and Farilhões are rocky islands that are part of one of the most beautiful nature reserves in Portugal.

You can visit the Fort of São João Baptista, which dates back to 1656, visit the caves, go canoeing, book diving lessons or sunbathe on the island's small beach.

Start with bread and fish soup, then move on to a fish stew, grilled fish, or coastal octopus (if it's not time for the famous grilled sardines).

To sweeten your meal or please some family members on your way home, opt for typical Peniche sweets (“S's” or Pastéis de Peniche).

Peniche is fundamentally known and appreciated for the conditions it offers for diving, surfing, bodyboarding, kitesurfing, SUP, fishing and spearfishing.

The famous tubes of Supertubos beach, the bay that connects Peniche beach to Baleal beach, the smaller beaches that line the entire coast, or the famous rocky beach rich in iodine located in Consolação... well, the hard part will be choosing.
