Why choose Nazaré for your road trip

Nazaré — a city worth exploring

Nazaré holds the Guinness World Record for the largest wave ever surfed — a towering 26.21-metre wall of water ridden by Sebastian Steudtner in 2020. This fishing town on Portugal's Silver Coast draws visitors year-round to the Praia do Norte, where the Nazaré Canyon funnels Atlantic swells into record-breaking surf. Beyond the waves, the Sítio da Nazaré clifftop quarter offers panoramic views from the Miradouro do Suberco, reached by a 19th-century funicular. The Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Nazaré houses centuries of maritime devotion, while the Museu Dr. Joaquim Manso tells the story of local traditions and fishing heritage. Stroll through the old town to see fish drying on wooden racks — a scene unchanged for generations. Coimbra lies 120 km to the north-east, and Óbidos, with its medieval walled centre, is just 38 km south. The coastal roads around Nazaré are well-suited to larger vehicles, with wide routes connecting beaches and villages along the Atlantic. Hiring a campervan through Yescapa means you can pick up from a local owner nearby, often saving on depot fees and getting first-hand tips on where to park up with ocean views. A motorhome gives you the freedom to wake up to the sound of the sea and explore the coast at your own pace. Nazaré rewards those who take their time — from fresh seafood at the harbour to sunsets over the Atlantic.

Best time to visit

Nazaré is a year-round destination, though each season brings something different. The big-wave season runs from October to March, when surfers from around the world flock to Praia do Norte — the Nazaré Tow Surfing Challenge usually takes place between November and February. Summer months are ideal for beach days and the Festas da Nossa Senhora da Nazaré in September fill the town with processions, folk music and local food. Campervan availability through Yescapa tends to be greatest in spring and autumn, when peer-to-peer prices are often lower and coastal campsites have more open pitches. Book ahead for July and August to secure your preferred motorhome.

I ragazzi sono sempre stati cortesi disponili. Hanno restituito il van pulito e ordinato quasi pronto per essere rinoleggiato. Alberto è un ottimo pilota, ha guidato dal primo secondo con sicurezza e disinvoltura. Grazie ancora per aver scelto Strafic per le vostre avventure ❤️

We had an amazing trip with the big Yellow guy! The car is a real trustworthy opponent for the Portuguese mountains. We were with 2 persons and had more than enough space. When we arrived we got a clear and relaxed explanation of where we can find everything in te van and how it works, also got a great suggestion for a destination to start the trip with. Thank you!

We had an amazing experience renting Francisco’s motorhome. We really enjoyed the entire trip — the motorhome was very comfortable, well equipped, and perfect for our journey. Having air conditioning was also a huge bonus, especially during the hot days, and it’s definitely not something you can take for granted with motorhomes of this type. Francisco and his team were always available whenever we had a question or needed help, and communication was excellent throughout the entire rental. Overall, it was a fantastic trip, and the motorhome made the experience even better. If we decide to rent a motorhome again in the future, I wouldn’t think twice about contacting Francisco again. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a great motorhome and a smooth, stress-free experience. Thank you for everything, Francisco! We hope to rent from you again in the future!
