The Alfeizerão Youth Hostel – São Martinho do Porto is back in business after a four-year break. This refurbished Youth Hostel, which is located 8km far from São Martinho do Porto beach in the centre west of Portugal, now offers modern, comfortable and well-equipped facilities.

With about 3 km of a sandy beach forming a shell shape around the sheltered bay, São Martinho do Porto is a very appreciated summer resort. The calm sea has the perfect conditions for both children and nautical sports such as windsurfing, sailing and canoeing. Here there are several reputable restaurants specialising in local gastronomic specialities such as steamed lobster or stuffed spider crab.

Close to São Martinho do Porto you can find beautiful beaches of fine sand and sheer cliffs standing out against the crashing sea, such as Peniche and Nazaré, both typical fishing town.

Apart from the beaches this is also a zone of great historical and cultural interest to discover! You can start by visiting two UNESCO World Heritage sites: the monastery of Santa Maria de Alcobaça, an architectural masterpiece from the early Gothic architecture; and the historic monastery of Batalha famous by its Manueline style and the amazing vaulted ceiling of its Chapter House - without any central support, it’s one of the most daring examples in European Gothic architecture. Not to be missed in the region is the town of Óbidos, which has been impeccably preserved within the medieval walls of its Moorish castle. The city of Caldas da Rainha, which owes its name to the thermal spring much loved by Queen D. Leonor, wife of King D. João II, and well known by its ceramics internationally renowned for its figurative and satirical works it is also worth visiting.
