Alentejo

Cork oaks, whitewashed towns, wine estates and empty beaches.

The Alentejo is Portugal at its most tranquil: Roman and medieval Évora, the hilltop village of Monsaraz above a huge lake, wine estates with excellent reds, and a wild Atlantic coast around Vila Nova de Milfontes along the Rota Vicentina trail.
