Comporta Villa Rental

Located about 60km south of Lisbon, Comporta is a quiet town surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, sand dunes and rice fields. No nightclubs here ! You can stroll around the beautiful shops and admire the pretty fishermen's huts. For some, these houses on stilts give the town an Asian feel, and the white sandy beaches remind them of the Hamptons in New York. However, Comporta has its own atmosphere, where people live in the moment with a very calm rhythm of life in the heart of nature. Indeed, Comporta is best known for its tranquillity and the birds have understood this. More than 200 species have decided to settle here and if you look up, you will surely see storks perched in their nests. The town also attracts many surfers who come to enjoy the beautiful spots and the calm atmosphere.
