Labruge Beach still a well-kept secret

Still unknown, just 20 km from the city of Porto, its a quiet place and keep almost untouchable its natural characteristics. Its sea, with high presence of algae with regenerating qualities, its a gift for our health and well-being. Integrates the Protected Landscape of the Coast of Vila do Conde, with its biological and landscape diversity. Start a walk on the bridge over the River Onda, where several duck couples present us every year with their litters, raised on the banks of the river. Go to Castro de S.Paio, which stands out for its archaeological heritage and imposing views of the Atlantic Ocean. Here you have various beach support equipment and you can enjoy the sunset on a terrace of its bars... an unmissable experience!

On holiday, on your way to Santiago or on a weekend getaway, be sure to take a break to learn the secret of the perfect combination of nature and the human being.

THERE'S A NEW SMILE ON THE ST. JAMES WAY!

Smiling Places is a new charming guest house situated in the quiet town of Labruge, very close to the beach. In this guest house we created a concept for your well-being, which allows you to slow down and live authentic moments. Here we share many experiences, many life stories that are shared at the end of the day, at sunset. There are no days alike. Sometimes only the silence is shared, interrupted by the chirping of birds, back to the nests. It is a place where beautiful human beings pass by, people who expect life to be a good walk for all.
