The beach @ Praia da Adraga – some hardy souls braving
the sea on 8th December 2016
Always a dramatic sea
Today we headed out to Praia da Adraga – our favourite beach in the Lisbon area. It is close to being the most westerly point of mainland Europe. The beach constantly changes shape sculpted by the elements.
After a stroll on the beach it was time for lunch at the Restaurante d'Adraga – great seafood and one of the best restaurant views in the world, especially if you are lucky enough, as we were, to get a table by the window. The food is simple but excellent.
All in all a sensible version of Brexit!
