The Northern Mountains region
As the name, the Green Coast suggest, miles of sandy beaches are backed by tall pines and the verdant "Minho" landscape of thickly wooded hills and lush emerald valleys.Here the pace of life is leisurely, with farmers and fishermen going about the day's work in traditional ways, just as generations before them. The Costa Verde is a region whose name perfectly evokes its beautiful countryside, unspoilt coastlines and lush landscapes of rich green valleys, vineyards and seemingly endless pine forests. Portugal's "Green Coast" stretches from the border with Spain in the north, down to just south of Porto, the country's second largest city. On the Costa Verde you will find the place of life is leisurely and steeped in tradition. Smallholders tend their plots in ways unchanged for many generations; fishermen take to the Atlantic in locally-built boats whose design would be recognised by their forefathers. Costa Verde is blessed with a wealth of monuments to the past, ancient convents, churches, monasteries, and picturesque castels tower above the landscape. CLIMATE The Costa Verde benefits from wet, mild winters which have created a wonderfully fertile temperatures reaching 32ºC.
