About Aveiro
Aveiro is known as the "Venice of Portugal" thanks to its network of canals crossed by colourful moliceiro boats, traditionally used to harvest seaweed. In town, visit Aveiro Cathedral, the Art Nouveau Museum and the Aveiro Museum housed in the former Convent of Jesus, where Princess Saint Joana is buried. Just minutes away lie Barra and Costa Nova beaches — the latter famous for its iconic striped fishermen's houses. Don't leave without trying ovos-moles, a traditional convent sweet with EU Protected Geographical Indication.
