Maritime beach
The most picturesque aspect of Costa Nova is its coast road along which a line of wooden huts is painted in brightly coloured stripes alternating with white. Built by fishermen as shelters and equipment stores, the huts have now been converted into rather characteristic holiday homes.
With the sea often rough and much appreciated by surfers, Costa Nova do Prado Beach covers a large expanse heading off southwards in the direction of Vagueira Beach, excellent for those liking a long walk along the seashore. On the other side of the coast road, Aveiro Estuary, with its calm waters, is a favourite for sailing and windsurfing in what constitutes an entirely different natural environment.
