The São Martinho do Porto Bay, shaped like a closed shell, has been frequented for years by the same families who long ago chose it as their favourite place for holidays and weekends.
Very crowded during the summer, when it turns into a truly cosmopolitan holiday resort, it has been enlivened in recent years by the practitioners of various "radical" sports such as climbing, windsurfing and canooing. The calm sea represents the perfect conditions for both children and nautical sports such as windsurfing, sailing and canoeing. The town, which was founded by monks from the Alcobaça Monastery in the 13th century, expanded significantly throughout the course of the 20th century becoming a much sought after and appreciated summer resort. The town further has a series of reputable restaurants specialising in local gastronomic specialities such as steamed lobster or stuffed spider crab.
