Walking
From the center of Viana do Castelo, head east on Rua da Bandeira towards Avenida dos Combatentes da Grande Guerra. Continue straight until you reach Praça da República, a central square. From there, take Avenida 25 de Abril, which runs parallel to the river Lima. Follow this avenue as it curves along the river, enjoying the scenic views. After about 1.5 kilometers, you will reach the area known as Foz do Rio Lima, where the river meets the Atlantic Ocean. Look for the park area along the riverbank, which offers beautiful views and a relaxing atmosphere.
Public Transport
From the Viana do Castelo bus station, take a local bus heading towards the coastal area. Check the schedule for buses that go towards the beach areas, as they typically run every 30 minutes. Ask the driver to let you know when you reach Foz do Rio Lima. The bus will drop you off near the riverbank, and you can walk a short distance to the park area where the river meets the ocean.
