Walk along the Atlantic Coastline 🇵🇹 Foz do Douro

#citywalk Foz do Douro is a district in Porto located at the mouth of the Douro River facing the Atlantic Ocean. We took tram no. 1 from the first stop at Infante (next to Church of Saint Francis) to the last stop at Passeio Alegre (next to Jardim do Passeio Alegre). From there we walked leisurely along the picturesque coastline until Avenida Brasil. We passed by Farol de Felgueiras lighthouse and Fortaleza de São João da Foz, a 16th-century fort, before reaching the beaches. The Atlantic coastline in Foz comprises of small sandy beaches nestled between granite outcrops. We enjoyed watching the huge Atlantic waves break onto the magnificent outcrops. The outcrops are ancient rocks about 300 million years old formed due to erosion of sea waves. We had lunch at Restaurante Praia da Luz by Ingleses Beach while enjoying the ocean view. #porto #portugal #fozdoDouro #Douro #foz #atlantic #oceanview #beach #coastline #tripblazers
