What is Portal Turismo Portugal

An editorial portal with commercial purpose

Portal Turismo Portugal is not a search engine or a marketplace. It is an editorial guide built on three pillars, and that is the context in which a partner appears.

Independent editorial

Verified editorial content about beaches, surf, fishing and coastal experiences. No clickbait, no disguised sponsored lists. Every page reflects editorial quality criteria that build audience trust.

Real-Time Data

Surf conditions, live webcams, tides, wind and water temperature. The portal is a decision tool, not just inspiration: tides from the Hydrographic Institute and forecasts from Open-Meteo.

Verified directory

We check each business's RNAAT registration (Turismo de Portugal) and its address or Google listing. Today 7 surf schools are listed, for free. Travellers talk to the business directly, with no middleman.

Who the portal is for

How we choose partners

Editorial criteria and quality standards

The portal's credibility depends on the quality of the partners we feature. Selection is manual — we do not accept every application.

Real and verifiable business

Registration in Turismo de Portugal's RNAAT register, where the activity requires it, and an address or Google Maps listing. This is what the Verified badge confirms, and it is free.

Certifications and working contacts

The certifications the business states, such as the Portuguese Surfing Federation (FPS), and a working website, phone and social accounts.

Quality photographic material

Photos you hold the rights to (up to 4 on a Partner page), representative of the business and venue. The profile needs to show what the traveller will find.

A contact that replies

The direct button takes the traveller straight to you, with no middleman. We ask for an active contact, so no traveller is left without a reply.

Service relevant to coastal tourism

Surf, fishing, coastal accommodation, seaside dining, watersports or nature. Businesses without a direct link to coastal tourism are not eligible.

We do not accept
Operators without a valid licence or permit
Businesses with unresolved complaint history
Services with no link to coastal or nature tourism
Profiles without minimum photographic material
Businesses without an active contact
Pure advertising campaigns without editorial context

This list protects the user experience and, consequently, the value of each partner's presence on the portal.
