Introduction
The Aveiro Lagoon lies on Portugal's central-north Atlantic coast, a shallow coastal lagoon separated from the sea by sandspits and natural channels, so laced with waterways that the region is called the 'Venice of Portugal'. The local painted 'moliceiro' boats once harvested aquatic plants from the lake and now carry visitors slowly through tranquil canals. Around the water, whitewashed towns trimmed with blue azulejos, scattered salt pans and flocks of migratory birds weave a gentle, luminous riverside picture — a haven for birdwatching and slow travel.
