Rio Alva

The Coimbrao - Costa de Prata (Silver Coast) region

Central Portugal retains a charming sense of relaxation and being in the `Real Portugal`. The area is very beautiful with winding rivers in the valley and little villages peppered along the hillsdes. The Rio Alva has many river beaches to try, some more popular and others just waiting to be discovered.

Coja is an ancient market town 2kms away and has restaurants, shops, bank and street cafes. The river beach is here where you can swim in the clear cool waters of the Rio Alva or hire a canoe for messing about on the river!

The district town of Arganil is approx. 15kms away with music and dance in the main square every Saturday night throughout August.

Coimbra is one of the oldest university cities in Europe and is approx. 50 kms away, well worth a visit just to wander the cobbled streets or along the river front.
