Alcobaça Essentials

Alcobaça is defined by its 12th-century Cistercian Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage site housing the ornate tombs of Pedro and Inês de Castro. The town's medieval castle ruins overlook the urban center and its 19th-century Neo-Renaissance town hall. Along the Atlantic coast, the region features the traditional fishing shores of Nazaré and the high sand dunes of Salir do Porto. The selection also includes the coastal village of São Pedro de Moel, set against the historic Leiria Pine Forest, and panoramic viewpoints overlooking the shell-shaped bay of São Martinho do Porto.
