On the western edge of the Iberian Peninsula, overlooking the Atlantic, lies the city of Espinho, halfway between Porto and Aveiro, served by excellent road and rail connections. So easy to get to!

A city where everything is close at hand, ideal for short getaways and city breaks all year round.

Between land and sea, there is a living fabric that welcomes those who arrive, where the energy, knowledge and determination of its people pulse. It is the heart of Espinho beating at the city’s core, which is its home.

These are streets that lead straight to the sunset over the sea, to fishing nets hauled up from the sand, to volleyballs always in the air. These are the street calls: It’s from Espinho, hooray!

There are other streets that cross paths, in other lives, in the smiles of shopkeepers, in the scents—of sea air, grilled fish, sunscreen.

There are lawns and shady spots that fill with lights, celebrations and families, music and cinema, friends and outdoor cafés, and carpets of flowers. Benches for tired legs.

It is health, sport and leisure, easy paths to follow, activities for every taste.

It is a place of encounters, of cold draft beers, ice creams and prawns, of conversations held standing on street corners.

It is people who welcome, who greet, who raise a toast.

"Welcome to our home!"
