🇵🇹 Restaurant with Nice Ocean View by Ingleses Beach, Foz
After a long walk along the Atlantic coastline at Foz do Douro, we chanced upon Praia da Luz, a beautiful restaurant by Ingleses Beach overlooking the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean. The restaurant offered both indoor and outdoor seating, allowing guests to choose their preferred dining ambiance. Although the food was a bit pricey, the breathtaking view made it worthwhile. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, we enjoyed a stunning view of the ocean while savoring our lunch. This picturesque setting is the perfect place to witness a mesmerizing sunset if you visit during dinner time. The combination of delectable food, impeccable service, and the serene sound of the waves created an unforgettable dining experience.

Walk along the Atlantic Coastline 🇵🇹 Foz do Douro
#citywalk
Foz do Douro is a district in Porto located at the mouth of the Douro River facing the Atlantic Ocean. We took tram no. 1 from the first stop at Infante (next to Church of Saint Francis) to the last stop at Passeio Alegre (next to Jardim do Passeio Alegre). From there we walked leisurely along the picturesque coastline until Avenida Brasil.
We passed by Farol de Felgueiras lighthouse and
Fortaleza de São João da Foz, a 16th-century fort, before reaching the beaches. The Atlantic coastline in Foz comprises of small sandy beaches nestled between granite outcrops. We enjoyed watching the huge Atlantic waves break onto the magnificent outcrops. The outcrops are ancient rocks about 300 million years old formed due to erosion of sea waves.
We had lunch at Restaurante Praia da Luz by Ingleses Beach while enjoying the ocean view.

🌟Tranquil Foz do Douro by the Atlantic🌟

🌟Tranquil Foz do Douro by the Atlantic🌟
Tram No.1 stops at Foz do Douro, walk along the embankment and see the locals fishing quietly.
Slowly walk to the end of the west, and the Felgueiras Lighthouse is right in front of you. Watching the tide of the sea on the shore, the magnificence of the Atlantic Ocean inspires awe in people's hearts.
With every approach to the Atlantic, there seems to be a bit of depression, a bit of melancholy, a bit of mystery, and an insurmountable feeling, perhaps related to the weather, perhaps related to the surging waves of the Atlantic.
The surging tide caused no one to want to approach the tower and the beach, but unexpectedly, a man in swimming trunks suddenly appeared in our camera. He fearlessly rushed towards the Atlantic Ocean. The onlookers were all amazed. It should be noted that the temperature in Porto is now less than 10 degrees on a cloudy day. It's already impressive enough to take off your clothes and wear only a pair of swimming trunks, but he still dared to run towards the sea despite the wind and waves!
As he disappeared into the waves, the onlookers immediately cheered and applauded, reminding me of the scene when we watched the sunset on the rooftop of Saint-Tropez that year. The atmosphere at this moment was not romantic but inspiring, and the picture was equally moving. This is the surprise that travel gives us~
