<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Set on the outer limits of Western Europe and stretching along 530 miles (850 km) of Atlantic Coast, Portugal has an independent spirit and an ancient and well-established culture. Starting on mainland Portugal, find landscapes that range from endless beaches to the rugged mountains of the Serra da Estrela. Visit the majestic monuments and 25 UNESCO World Heritage sites that proudly recall the rich history of one of the oldest nations in Europe.

On its shores and on the islands beyond, partake in a wide range of excursions and activities, including surfing lessons; golfing some of the world's most beautiful courses; biking through parks and stunning natural reserves; or hiking the country's faith paths--Portuguese Way of Santiago and the Fatima Ways.
