Véu da Noiva Viewpoint

Miradouro do Véu da Noiva

A viewpoint beside the North Coast road, where a waterfall drops hundreds of meters from a sea cliff into the Atlantic, its slender stream resembling a bride's veil.

Véu da Noiva lies on the North Coast between Seixal and São Vicente. A slender waterfall runs down a lush green sea cliff and plunges straight into the ocean. The viewpoint sits right beside the new road, so you can simply pull over and look. Across the way, you'll see the old North Coast road (ER101, once notorious for its danger) clinging to the cliff face and winding along it. Admission is free, and about 15 minutes is enough. Stop briefly if you're driving the North Coast. The water flow is greatest after the rainy season and is occasionally just a thin thread in the dry season.
