Adventure holidays in Portugal
Portugal adventure holidays might start with a coast offering some of the world's finest surf (Peniche and Nazare are globally renowned), along with zippy sailing off windswept dunes or secluded coves, plus sea kayaking around spectacular nature-filled national parks. Hiker and bikers can dive into dark woods and majestic peaks amid mountains where eagles ride the thermals. Here too, are places to canyon and climb amid roaring cascades, or canoe down rushing streams.
