Portugal - Costa Verde

Vila Do Conde

A Karen Brown Recommendation
After a pretty 15 kilometers from Porto you will reach Vila do Conde, an ancient fishing village that predates the Romans, but which is increasingly attractive as a resort. The town is known for its lace making and, if you happen to be there on a Friday, you will find an especially large selection at the weekly market. The Santa Clara Convent is worth a visit, if only to see the carved ceilings and the tombs of the 14th-century founders, Dom Afonso Sanche and Dona Teresa Martin. In the cloister is a fountain fed by a 6-kilometer-long aqueduct, which originates in nearby Povoa de Varzim. This neighboring town is also a popular resort due to its nice beach, casino, and colorful old fishermen’s quarter.
