Comporta is an uncomplicated place for enjoying simple things and living at a slower relaxed pace, sampling the superb local food, browsing the boutique shops, or enjoying a cocktail whilst watching a stunning beach sunset. For some family fun, you can go horse riding, book a surf or sup lesson, play a round of golf, hire bikes to cycle from beach to beach, or go wild dolphin watching on the Sado estuary.
