Foz do Arelho which is a good sized village and equidistant from this property to Nadadouro, has several cafes and restaurants, shops, several mini-markets, bank, pharmacy, post office, doctors offices, hotels, guest houses and everything else you would expect for a small ocean side village. The beaches at Foz do Arelho are among the best on the Silver Coast and offer safe swimming in the lagoon and surfing, windsurfing, kite surfing and other water sports on both the lagoon and the open waters.

The nearest large town is Caldas da Rainha which is a ten minute drive. Caldas is a thriving town with a busy town centre.
