he stunning stretch of Portuguese coastline between Lisbon in the south and Porto in the north makes up the area known locally as the Costa de Prata. Known to the wider world as the Silver Coast, the region is characterised by long and golden sandy beaches, interspersed with rocky outcrops and dramatic cliffs that fall away to the Atlantic surf below. So unspoilt is the Silver Coast, it is often referred to as the real Portugal. With its pristine beaches, sleepy fishing villages, scenic countryside of vineyards and forests, historic monuments, pretty medieval towns with cobbled streets and whitewashed houses, the Silver Coast attracts visitors looking for charm and authenticity. The Atlantic coastline is a paradise for water sports lovers with good fishing, exceptional surfing, scuba diving and snorkelling near the Berlenga Islands - renowned as one of the best surfing and diving areas in Europe - as well as superb opportunities for swimming, waterskiing and windsurfing. Inland, there are numerous golf courses, some situated amidst the vineyards that produce such outstanding wines. With so many excellent courses, including Penha Longa, a former Portuguese Open venue, the Silver Coast is a true haven for golfers of all levels of expertise. Not surprisingly, Silver Coast real estate is quickly gaining in popularity with those who wish to get away from it all, but also those who see the historical area as a good place to invest. 144
