Ericeira: Proof that good things happen by the sea
Ericeira is a coastal town in Portugal where cliffs meet the Atlantic Ocean. Its whitewashed houses with pastel trim line streets that reveal sudden ocean views. Fishing boats still operate in the harbour while surfers ride the waves nearby.
The town maintains traditional routines alongside new visitors and businesses. Morning light illuminates the cliffs and buildings, while the constant sound of waves creates a steady presence throughout the day. Fresh fish is served in local cafés that have operated for decades.
