Tasco do Strauss

Tapas bar

👍👍 Honestly, the best food we ate in Portugal (and we were in Porto, Lisbon and Sintra). We discovered the restaurant on the way from the Moorish Castle, it is an inconspicuous street, away from all the hustle and bustle of the city. The owner is charismatic, energetic and from the first second we felt...

With 17 euros you have the opp...

Surf school

👍👍 We had a great time and would come back for another lesson if we had more time. The instructor was really nice and helpful. This was our first time surfing. In the beginning he explained on the beach how to paddle and stand up, then he pushed us on the waves and told us when to pop up. At the end he...
