Explore Live Cams in Portugal

Portugal sits on the western edge of the Iberian Peninsula, covering about 35,600 square miles (92,200 km²), including the Atlantic islands of the Azores and Madeira. Green hills and vineyards fill the north, rolling plains and cork oak forests cover the south, and a long Atlantic coast is lined with cliffs, beaches and fishing towns.

Its most famous natural landmark is Nazaré, where an undersea canyon pushes up some of the biggest waves ever surfed. The highest peak is Mount Pico, a volcano in the Azores at 7,713 feet (2,351 m). Cabo da Roca, near Lisbon, is the westernmost point of mainland Europe, and the rooster of Barcelos is a much-loved national symbol.

Sperm whales and dolphins swim off the Azores, a family of bottlenose dolphins lives in the Sado estuary, and the rare Iberian lynx has returned to the Guadiana valley. The Laurisilva forest of Madeira, the Pico Island vineyards and the green hills of Sintra are all UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

Did You Know? Portugal produces about half of the world's cork, which is stripped by hand from the bark of living cork oaks every nine years without harming the trees.
