Serra dos Mangues de Yelloh Camping (smp09s)

A walk along the Serra dos Mangues coast

Wednesday, May 20 10:00

The Walk: The walk starts from the streetside parking area on Rua Vasco da Gama about 100 m. South of ‘Parque de Campismo Colina do Sol – Yelloh Village’. in São Martinho do Porto. Our first waypoint on the walk is the Praia da Gralha overlook and paraglider launch site. If we are lucky the local club will be out gliding. From there we follow dirt roads and paths along the coast until we reach the Praia da Salgada mirador where we have a view of the 6+ km. long beach, Nazaré and the Forte de São Miguel Arcanjo at Sitio. Next we continue on paths on the coastal ridge enjoying the ocean views until we turn inland and double back on local streets through Serra dos Mangues. Near the end of our walk we have an opportunity to stop for coffee at the village cafe & restaurant, Restaurante Tipico da Serra before continuing down Rua Vasco da Gama to where we started.

Please carpool if possible so we don’t fill the neighborhood with our cars.
