Pousada de Santa Cruz

The modern Youth Hostel of Santa Cruz is perfect for everyone, with its rooms with kitchenette and its swimming pool and sports fields. It’s located in one of the most sought-after seaside resorts in the West region thanks to the long stretches of sand and the rare beauty of its beaches and majestic cliffs. 

On the Santa Cruz beach, you can surf all year round. In the summer months, with smaller waves, it’s especially suitable for beginners. In the winter months, it’s very sought-after by more experienced surfers.    

If you have a penchant for prehistory and a fascination for dinosaurs, visit the Lourinhã Museum where you'll see the largest Iberian collection of dinosaur fossils and Dino Parque to see them on a full scale.
