Portugal has a rich seafaring past, superb beach resorts, wistful towns and a landscape wreathed in olive groves, vineyards and wheat fields. Littered with UNESCO World Heritage sites and graced by one of Europe's most relaxed and attractive capitals, it also remains refreshingly affordable. Savouring life slowly is a Portuguese passion, and much of the best is humble - traditional folk festivals; simple, honest food drowning in olive oil; music that pulls at the heart strings, recalling past love and glories; and markets overflowing with fish, fruit and flowers.

These photos were both taken at “Figueira da Foz” in Portugal. In the beginning, the sky was cloudy and I had just arrived at the spot. I was staying in a house nearby, and as I went to the beach for a walk I saw a couple fishermen standing on the piers.... Read more >

Sat, 28 May 2011 | By shaz | Views [102]

What can I say about the Azores... Beautiful sealife. Amazing whales! Nice and friendly locals. I learned how to get in and out of a wetsuit without giving myself a hernia and not looking like a whale itself. I learned that dolphins aren't that friendly, ... Read more >
