Jeronymo Pereira Campos Filhos Ceramics Factory

Highlight • Monument

Former Jerónimo Pereira Campos Ceramic Factory, built between 1915 and 1917. The red brick facade and its central chimney are postcards of Aveiro, which highlight the beauty of the canal. It was deactivated in the 1960s and renovated in 1995, becoming the Aveiro Congress Center. Today you can find the IEFP facilities here and some old parts from the factory on display.

Costa Nova

Highlight • Beach

Probably one of the most beautiful beach towns in the Beira / Central Portugal. Very popular with young people who come to the Sundownwer and surfing. My favorite since 1999!

Coastal Cycle Path - Mira Canal

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The coastal bike route (EuroVelo1) follows a long stretch of the canal formed by the occlusion of the rivers restricted from flowing directly into the ocean by the sand build up along the shore, eventually forming the large Aveiro lagoon, where the rivers finally break through to the ocean.

A beautiful route along the estuary from Aveiro to the south. The first 25 km are very close to the estuary and are largely on dirt tracks that are perfectly suitable for cycling. You can see many birds, including herons and flamingos. We get to Areão beach, but if you want to add a few more km, you can extend …

Hello Komootler, the Costa Nova has beautiful striped houses and Aveiro is a bit like Venice. We were here in 2018 to refresh our memories. The weather wasn't that clear, but it held up. This area is always worth a visit.
