Nazaré E-Bike Tour: Silver Coast Beaches & Pine Forest Ride

The Experience
Before You Go
Mind the wind
The Atlantic can create strong crosswinds on exposed stretches — keep a firm grip and lower your center of gravity on gusty sections.
Watch for loose sand
Switch to lower speeds and stay toward packed sand or hardtrack when crossing dune areas to avoid slipping.
Hydrate and pace
Bottled water is provided, but bring a small hydration pack for longer sections between stops and for personal refill comfort.
Helmet and cap use
Helmets and disposable caps are supplied — always wear them, especially on singletrack and near cliffs.
