6 places to go canoeing in Portugal

Azibo River Beach - Macedo de Cavaleiros   


The trail starts and ends in the same place, next to EcoParkAzibo. Visit the only island in the Azibo lagoon, the Cabeço do Fidalgo Island and discover a little bit of the history of this magical place. The direct contact with nature transports you to another dimension. Enjoy the peace and tranquility that the whole route provides. Take the opportunity to know the Ribeira Fluvial Beach that is classified as one of the 7 wonders.

Óbidos Lagoon - Leiria  


One of the most beautiful places on the Portuguese coast that takes us to another world, not only because of the landscape but also because of the diversity of species that we can find. Rent your car at Guerin to go to the meeting point. The trail starts next to the Musaranhos picnic park, on the left bank of the lagoon. Along the Park you will pass some reference points, such as Ponta do Espichel, Lapinha beach and Foz do Arelho. Take the return trip by the right margin of the lagoon, passing close to Pedra Furada. You will see that it is worth it!

Foz de Alge - Figueiró dos Vinhos   


Starting at the Dornes River Beach, get ready to enjoy unique views. Discover little corners that go beyond the scenic beauty. Enjoy the silence that, from time to time, may be interrupted by small birds. Once you arrive at Foz de Alge, the return trip is made by the opposite margin, where you can appreciate some of the beautiful escarpments up close.

Praia Formosa - Torres Vedras   


An interesting route to get to know some of the beaches of the Torres Vedras municipality from another perspective. A more calm, distant and silent perspective, the ideal moment to relax. Porto Novo is the turning point where you can stretch your legs and, in an instant, pick up the oars again.   

Benagil - Lagoa   


An experience not to be missed, that has even more impact if done after doing the Seven Hanging Valleys walk. This way you get to see the trek's landscapes from a different point of view. Glimpse the Benagil Algar from another angle, here you'll be inside it and not on top of it. The duality of perceptions makes the whole experience even more enriching.   
 


Venture out with Guerin   


At sea or on the river, go by canoe. On land, go by Guerin. Choose the rental car which best suits your adventure and don't waste any more time. Set off to discover the best of Portugal, always in the company of Guerin.
