What to do in Comporta in low season

The offer of activities such as horseback riding on the beach, boat rides, exploring the dunes in the “comporta” style with a vintage land rover, surfing, paddle boarding, yoga massages, spa, tennis, among many others and the quality of some restaurants are part of the trip and everyone looks for these experiences in their vacation days. In the low season, the truth is that not all restaurants are open (a few of them are seasonal) and not all activities are possible (if the sea is stronger, surfing is impractical, for example).However, Portugal has one of the sunniest winters in Europe and so visiting the area in the low season can be even more relaxing than in more popular months. And depending on where you are from (country), you may consider the weather in Portugal to be fall rather than winter, or spring rather than fall.

Although many restaurants are seasonal, it doesn’t mean you don’t have options. The best thing? You don’t need to book in advance. Know the best places to eat in Comporta. The activities (although not all are possible), are easy to book and let’s admit, since it is a less crowded period, nothing like horseback riding on the dunes on a completely empty beach whose marks left are the horse’s paws in the sand. A dream no? Of course, laying your towel on the beach or diving in the sea may not be guaranteed, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have lunch/dinner or simply enjoy the beach in the off-season. In winter, Portugal, most days always have sun rays, so believe me, even if it is winter or colder, it is still a moment of pure relaxation.Another good reason is that you find more availability in accommodations and at less competitive prices. So you have much more choice and you don’t have to book nine months in advance like is necessary to do it for the summer months.
