Things to do nearby
Ericeira became Europe's first World Surfing Reserve in 2011, with seven surf breaks packed into about 4km of coastline; nomads come for the surf-town pace, lower cost than Lisbon, and an easy 40-minute drive to the capital.
Vila / Town Center — most walkable, cafes and coworking, highest nomad density
São Sebastião — near Matadouro beach and surf break, weekend markets, walkable
Ribamar — quieter, cliffside, near Coxos surf break, car helpful
Getting around
Ericeira's center is walkable, but a scooter or car helps for outlying surf beaches like Ribamar; Lisbon airport to town is 45-60 minutes by car or shuttle, no train.
