This is the lighthouse right next to the surfing point! I wanted to feel the last sunset in Porto in a different place than the one I saw every day, so I came here☺️ (The sunset seen from the sea is more romantic for no reason♡) At first, I felt disappointed by the thick clouds but what the heck! The sun appeared after passing through the thick clouds and shined between the clouds making it even more amazing❣️🌅 Thanks to the perfect sky of Porto until the end, I was able to have an unforgettable ending . #Portugal #Porto travel #Porto travel #Travel destination recommendation #Hidden travel destination #Small city travel #Life travel destination #Next time here #Sunset spot #Sunset restaurant

#europeonbudget Foz do Douro is a district in Porto, located at the mouth of the Douro River, where it meets the Atlantic Ocean. The Atlantic coastline in Foz features stunning formations of ancient rocks that are over 570 million years old, interspersed with younger granite rocks about 290 million years old. Together, these formations make up the Foz do Douro Metamorphic Complex, which stretches along small beaches between São Francisco Xavier Fort and Felgueiras Pier. Over time, the sea continues to sculpt these ancient rocks into new forms, such as sand. We thoroughly enjoyed watching the massive Atlantic waves crash against the magnificent rock outcrops.

#europeonbudget The Foz Promenade (or Promenade da Foz) is a scenic coastal walkway in Foz do Douro, Porto, Portugal. We began our stroll at Jardim do Passeio Alegre, a beautiful public garden near the mouth of the Douro River, where the historic Tram 1 terminates. Stretching along the Atlantic Ocean, the promenade offers stunning views of the sea, rocky shores, and sandy beaches. Along the way, we passed the Farol de Felgueiras lighthouse and the Fortaleza de São João da Foz, a 16th-century fort, before reaching the beaches. We thoroughly enjoyed our walk, accompanied by the fresh sea breeze and the mesmerizing sight of waves crashing against the rocks.

After a long walk along the Atlantic coastline at Foz do Douro, we chanced upon Praia da Luz, a beautiful restaurant by Ingleses Beach overlooking the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean. The restaurant offered both indoor and outdoor seating, allowing guests to choose their preferred dining ambiance. Although the food was a bit pricey, the breathtaking view made it worthwhile. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, we enjoyed a stunning view of the ocean while savoring our lunch. This picturesque setting is the perfect place to witness a mesmerizing sunset if you visit during dinner time. The combination of delectable food, impeccable service, and the serene sound of the waves created an unforgettable dining experience. 📍 Restaurante Praia da Luz 📌 R. Cel.

#EuropeanTravel It takes about an hour to walk from downtown Porto and 20-30 minutes to get to “Foz Beach”! The waves are really strong, but it’s a beach worth visiting at least once. If you take the tram, take the left side when you go and the right side when you come back to see the Douro River. If you’re coming back to the city in the evening, take the right side and you’ll be able to see the night view! Since Porto is so small, I recommend Foz Beach to those who want to travel to the suburbs!

#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

A.M./P.M.: 96 Hours in Porto Vol.7 🌟Tranquil Foz do Douro by the Atlantic🌟 Tram No.1 stops at Foz do Douro, walk along the embankment and see the locals fishing quietly. Slowly walk to the end of the west, and the Felgueiras Lighthouse is right in front of you. Watching the tide of the sea on the shore, the magnificence of the Atlantic Ocean inspires awe in people's hearts. With every approach to the Atlantic, there seems to be a bit of depression, a bit of melancholy, a bit of mystery, and an insurmountable feeling, perhaps related to the weather, perhaps related to the surging waves of the Atlantic. The surging tide caused no one to want to approach the tower and the beach, but unexpectedly, a man in swimming trunks suddenly appeared in our camera. He fearlessly rushed towards the Atlantic Ocean. The onlookers were all amazed. It should be noted that the temperature in Porto is now less than 10 degrees on a cloudy day. It's already impressive enough to take off your clothes and wear only a pair of swimming trunks, but he still dared to run towards the sea despite the wind and waves! As he disappeared into the waves, the onlookers immediately cheered and applauded, reminding me of the scene when we watched the sunset on the rooftop of Saint-Tropez that year. The atmosphere at this moment was not romantic but inspiring, and the picture was equally moving. This is the surprise that travel gives us~
