Top Cascais Nature Walks

Step into the authentic world of Ericeira’s fishing community with this walking experience guided by a local fisherman. Starting from J Bay, you will be introduced to the project and meet Luis, who will share what the ocean means in his daily life. From there, you will walk through the historic streets of Ericeira, discovering places connected to old fishing traditions and learning how the village lived before tourism and surf culture transformed it. At the harbor, the heart of the experience, you will observe fishing boats, nets and equipment while hearing real stories about life at sea, the challenges of the profession, and the relationship between fishermen, weather and ocean conditions. You will also discover the living environment of the port, including the animals, sounds and rhythms that define daily maritime life.
