    River Swimming in Gois

    Posted by praiafluvial 20 April 2011

    A tranquil green oasis where you can float indolently in the soft translucent waters of the Rio Ceira. Explore up stream beneath the overhanging trees in the deep water above the weir or slosh in the shallows at its foot. Cross a plank bridge and spread your picnic blanket on one of the small shady islands and snooze in the heat of the day. Later, wander along the riverside boardwalk to the small town to find a cafe or an ice-cream.
