Choose the 8:30 AM or 2:00 PM departure and travel towards Aveiro on an experience lasting approximately 4 hours.

Enjoy a 50-minute cruise through Aveiro’s canals aboard a traditional moliceiro boat. Admire the city from the water, learn about the history of these colourful boats and taste ovos moles, the region’s most iconic traditional sweet.

Continue to Costa Nova, famous for its former fishermen’s houses painted with colourful stripes. Enjoy time to walk alongside the houses, admire the scenery and take photographs at one of the Portuguese coast’s most recognisable locations.

Although the guide and vehicle are private, the moliceiro boat cruise may be shared with other visitors.
