Sightseeing

The Ericeira World Surfing Reserve is a world-class surf zone encompassing approximately 8 km of coastline. It contains a high density of outstanding surf breaks, including iconic breaks such as Ribeira d’Ilhas and Coxos, among others. “It is a homage to all local fishermen that over the centuries have respected and praised this beautiful ocean. It is also an assumption of the responsibility for its preservation, making sure that this valuable universal heritage will continue to be enjoyed in its entirety by future generations, just as it was for the pioneers of surf in Portugal, who were awed by its discovery.” A vibrant marine ecosystem, an established yet burgeoning surf culture, and a community centered around ocean pursuit and enjoyment are the perfect setting for successful management of coastal resources. The Ericeira World Surfing Reserve Local Stewardship Council seeks to maintain and guarantee the healthy marine abundance of local waters and foster the continued responsible enjoyment of local coastlines for all users.

Food scene

The name says almost everything, Green is Good, but it doesn't explain that green is even better if it's next to the blue of the sea – because that's precisely where we are, in the heart of Ericeira's old town, rocked by the sound of the waves there in bass, at Praia dos Pescadores. At GiG, we look for balance. Between the healthy and the tasty, between the old and the contemporary, we built a new place but full of history – from an old grocery store, from which we kept the original furniture, we made a modern-day restaurant where you can enjoy the best of ours. gastronomy has to offer, without losing sight of the condiments for a careful diet. To achieve this, we recovered flavors and ingredients from the past, which we learned to cook in an innovative way, in dishes configured with the help of an accredited nutritionist who guides us. At GiG, logic prevails from the lighter and healthier snack, accompanied by tasty and creative natural juices, to the appeal of comfort and intimacy, providing, more than a meal, a moment of tasting and pleasure, always with a menu that does not give in to excess. Because our secret is balance.

surf eat Drink Relax and Repeat… Translated from Hawaiian Maika'i, which means Good/Good, we are positioned as “the good food place”, a space that aims to give a gastronomic continuity, in a “Boa Onda” mood, to the new 58 Surf store. Good food, with influences from the world, combined with the good vibe of surf & skate is what you can expect from us!
