Most the attractions I talk about in this article are located near the coast. As you travel through the country of Portugal, you will quickly realize that its people and all its highlights are closely connected to the nature. People in Portugal are very lucky, because it is a very rich country. In Portugal, we get to enjoy the beach, the mountains, but also the city. If you come to Lisbon but have some time left in the country, seize the opportunity to visit some of these attractions. You won&#8217;t regret it! Read on and find out <strong>twenty unmissable attractions in Portugal<\/strong>!<\/p>\n<h4>Ger\u00eas National Park<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13129\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal3.jpg\" alt=\"20unmissableattractionsinPortugal3\" width=\"750\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal3.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal3-300x160.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>First on my list of 20 unmissable attractions in Portugal is the Ger\u00eas National Park. Located in the north of Portugal, closed to the border with Spain, it is one of the greatest natural attractions of the country! Its rare and impressive beautiful landscapes are home to many species of fauna, such as wolves and birds of prey. The flora variety of the park is also pretty unbelievable.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13128\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal2.jpg\" alt=\"20unmissableattractionsinPortugal2\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal2.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal2-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal2-816x459.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It is a magical place that still looks like it hasn&#8217;t been touched by the human hand.

You will find many lagoons scattered along the park. Some areas of the <strong><i>Ger\u00eas National Park<\/i><\/strong> can be hard to access, so you need to evaluate your habilities, bring comfortable shoes and clothes.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13126\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal1.jpg\" alt=\"20unmissableattractionsinPortugal1\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal1.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal1-816x459.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In the main and largest lagoon of the <strong><i>Ger\u00eas National Park<\/i><\/strong>, you will be able to take a boat cruise, ride a water scooter, and join many other fun activities!

Close to the <strong><i>Torre dos Cl\u00e9rigos<\/i><\/strong>, it is considered to be one of the most beautiful bookstores of Europe.<\/p>\n<p>The wooden shelves full of books go up to the ceiling, the stained glass on the ceiling provide a unique atmosphere to the place.

Unfortunately, I&#8217;ve never actually been to the <strong><i>Benagil Caves<\/i><\/strong>, but it&#8217;s been on my bucket list for so long! You can access the caves by boat, and also by swimming. But you need to be careful with the high tide! Also, you need to know that it is quite a long swim, so you have to be physically prepared!<\/p>\n<h4>Praia da Rocha<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13152\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal24.jpg\" alt=\"20unmissableattractionsinPortugal24\" width=\"1801\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal24.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal24-300x128.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal24-768x327.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal24-1024x437.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal24-816x348.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1801px) 100vw, 1801px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Again, in the Algarve region, there&#8217;s a very fun beach: the <strong><i>Praia da Rocha<\/i><\/strong>! Why is it on my list of 20 unmissable attractions in Portugal? Because it has such a cool atmosphere. The water is warm, there are plenty of water activities you can join, and the people are so friendly! You can stay on the beach til the sun sets. Romantic and relaxing moments are guaranteed. However, you need to know that during the summer months, the beach can get really crowded.<\/p>\n<h4>Traditional festivities<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Marchas populares de Lisboa<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13153\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal25.jpg\" alt=\"20unmissableattractionsinPortugal25\" width=\"4000\" height=\"2667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal25.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal25-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal25-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal25-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/20unmissableattractionsinportugal25-816x544.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 4000px) 100vw, 4000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This is something you won\u2019t be able to experience only once in the year, during the month of June!
