Visit Portugal is the National Tourism Authority responsible for the promotion, enhancement, and sustainability of the tourism activity, from supply to demand. Portugal’s thermal spas use traditional techniques and the therapeutic properties and mineral richness of the Atlantic waters for thalassotherapy, and the relaxation sessions take advantage of the regenerating effects of local wine, chocolate, and hot stones as an ideal way to find inner serenity and peace. The variety of the Portuguese landscape- from mountains to vast plains, to sandy beaches and rolling waves- also makes the country an ideal destination for all types of outdoor experiences including walking, trekking, cycling, and even surfing.
