Hotel di Beira Litoral, Portugal
Beira Litoral runs along Portugal's central coast, with a mild Atlantic climate that keeps winters around 50°F (10°C) and summers near 75°F (24°C). It's famous for the ancient University of Coimbra, where you can tour the 18th-century Joanina Library, and for Aveiro's colorful moliceiro boats gliding through saltwater canals. In summer, head to Figueira da Foz for surfing on the rough Atlantic waves, while winter invites you to explore Coimbra's live fado music scene-a unique academic style sung by students in black capes.
