Holiday Rentals in Vila do Conde - A Guide to Vila do Conde
The municipality of Vila do Conde lies to the north of Porto and is a popular seaside area. Many Vila do Conde holiday rentals are to be found near Mindelo beach and the Mindelo Ornithological Reserve.
The city of Vila do Conde is an attractive fishing port and, together with its twin town Pavoa de Varzim, is also a popular holiday destination. This is where the river Ave reaches the ocean and a replica wooden sailing ship recalls the days when this was an important ship building area.
Dominating the city is the convent of Santa Clara now restored and floodlit at night, an impressive sight to remind you of your Vila do Conde holiday rental. Below the convent is the old town and working fishing port. Although the area relies heavily on tourism, fishing is still important to the local economy.
