Nazare · Centro

Forte de São Miguel Arcanjo & Faro de Nazare

★★★

Sunset

Location: Nazaré Sítio area

Open in Google Maps

Getting there: 1km walk from funicular top

Best time: Oct–Mar for giant waves. Any sunset for brutal Atlantic views from the battlements

Getting there: Walk 1km west from Largo de Nossa Senhora along the cliff — free entry to grounds, €2 for museum

Pro tip: Inside the fort: a surf museum with boards and footage of the record waves. Worth every cent
