Pontoeste sits between a natural reserve and a bio-protected area. There are many excellent lodging options, for all tastes and budgets. Even if you come around without previous reservation you'll surely find a suitable place.
If by any chance you are a very roots surfer and stand for Nature Respect, there are a few miles of desert sand dunes where you are sure to find your own magic surface. Just remember, it is to be looked after.
