Workation in Peniche: the essentials
A working fishing harbour shares this rocky peninsula north of Lisbon with some of Europe's best-known surf, from the Supertubos contest beach to the bay at Baleal. The city has about 15,000 people. Its waterfront fortress served as a political prison under the Salazar dictatorship and now houses a national museum of resistance, and boats leave in season for the Berlengas islands. Remote work here clusters around surf houses and a few coworking spaces. The centre is plain and windswept, winters are grey, and long-term rentals are scarce because so much housing goes to surfers. Lisbon Airport is about 65 km away.
