This is a top restaurant for seafood enthusiasts! The price-quality ratio is great, as you will enjoy excellent food for very reasonable prices. Even if you don't like fish, there are great meat alternatives as well.

Great tastes combined with great views! You'll experience new twists on classic dishes, and if you can manage to get a spot on the terrace in the evening, it will be accompanied by a beautiful view of the sunset over the 'Salinas' or salt mines.

The Lighthouse of Praia da Barra, or also know as the Lighthouse of Aveiro, is an iconic landmark of the region, and definitely worth a visit. You can visit it on Wednesdays afternoons at 14h, 15h or 16h. You will have to climb 271 staircases but the effort is compensated by the gorgeous views! Well worth the climb.
