Lunch time is usually not in the sun but when we get close to the end of August we love to sit and enjoy these last, peak summer moments.

And what about you? What do you still want to enjoy this summer?

Between the rice fields 🌱and the beach🐚 the Sado estuary is a unique ecosystem!
This estuary is famous for its wild beauty, bird watching and dolphin watching. There are about 250 bird species that inhabit this natural wonder, including thousands of flamingos🦩that come here to spend the months of October and November.
Casa do Colmo is only 10 minutes walking to estuary beaches, and about the same to rice fields. You could easily spend days on end in this area just trekking through tralis and observing nature. In fact, this drone shot is in the rice fields close to our house!
What was the most amazing nature path you have done in Portugal?

What is the thing you most search for when you go on vacation?🌴
Many people travel as a way to reduce stress, but for some people travel can also induce stress. Travel stress is a feeling of mental strain and pressure related to travelling.
It especially happens when we “pack” onto a vacation seeing many different places in a short period of time.
So when booking your holidays its important to have a self awareness of what you need most to feel recharged.
Do you prefer to go on vacation and just stay at one place? Or are you a wanderer that feels energized by exploring? Reply in the comments below 😎

Comporta is nothing short of amazing landscapes. From the muddy plains of the river, to the white & dry dune soil, to the intense green of the sprawling rice fields. Within a short walk you get a crazy range of photogenic places.

Have you ever seen rice fields in person?

It is customary to say in a true alentejan's house, whether rich or poor, the table is always set. We also find it to be true. The sense of community and support for each other is a strong part of our culture.

The “Caldeira de Tróia” is a lagoon that forms an inlet in Tróia peninsula. With high tidal influence, this lagoon is almost completely dry on low tide. On its sides it mostly has beautiful white sand and towards the center it has mud. Due to the mud absorving a lot of the sun’s heat the water is usually crystal clear and wonderfully warm, a true “caribbean” in Portugal.
Have you visited caldeira?
