In Pedrógão the small streets lead into the “Avenida
Marginal” and remind you of old fishermen’s traditions. The beach, near the Avenida Marginal has the colour of
the sun hats, the tanned bodies and also of the typical boats waiting for the ritual of the “Arte Xávega”, which
has been repeated for many years, in calm sea days. It still is an important event when, in the summer, the boats arrive to
the shore. The strength of men rowing with long oars against the powerful waves. Once on the beach, everyone helps pulling
the net. The fish is sold there, in a public auction, amongst happiness and curiosity. The sea taste continuous at table almost
in its natural shape with the grilled sardines, grilled fish and shellfish or very well spiced in the fish stews. This immense
shore continues to the north and towards the Fausto Beach and to the south joins the Foz of the Rio Lis (Lis River). The dunes
and the Pine Forest enhance its natural beauty and give you a perfect holiday.
