These beaches are identified with a white flag, including the respective symbol, and have reserved parking areas, pedestrian access, beach walkways and adapted toilet facilities.

These accommodation units may be classified as:<br /><br />COUNTRY HOUSES (CC) – these are houses located in villages and rural areas that still preserve the original design, building materials and other typical features of the local architecture;<br />AGRICULTURAL TOURISM (AG) – this consists of accommodation on a farm, where tourists can take part in the agricultural work if they so wish;<br />RURAL HOTELS (HR) – classified from 3 to 5-star, these hotels are to be found in rural areas, respecting the original layout and architectural characteristics of the surrounding region.<br /><br /><strong>Camping<br /></strong>Scattered all around the country, Camping Sites enable tourists to enjoy direct contact with Nature. Camping Sites may be considered either <strong>public</strong> (if they are open to the general public) or <strong>private</strong> (if access is reserved to members or beneficiaries of the site’s operating body). These latter sites are identified with the letter "P", and the possibility of staying at the camping site must always be checked beforehand. Depending on the infrastructures and services provided, Camping Sites may be classified from 3 to 5-star, although such classification is not mandatory.<br /><br /><strong>Nature Tourism<br /></strong>Whenever a tourist establishment is located in a nature protected area or in an area classified as being of natural value, it is included in the category of Nature Tourism, a practice that is recognised by the Institute for the Conservation of Nature and Biodiversity. In this case, equipment and services must be provided that enable tourists to enjoy and interpret nature.<br /><br /><strong>Youth Hostels<br /></strong>Youth hostels are located close to beaches, in the countryside or in the main cities, offering accommodation at attractive prices. They are aimed above all at people who have a youthful spirit and enjoy sharing the same space in an atmosphere of conviviality, although some Youth Hostels also have double or family rooms, which are quieter and more private. Some hostels also serve meals.

A temporary device can be rented that allows cars to drive on and pay for all road infrastructures with a toll collection system (including electronic toll lanes and bridges). The system has no commitment or expiry date, and the identifier has a lifetime guarantee. Payment is made using an international credit card and only in the months in which the service is used. For more information and to sign up, go to <a title="https://visitors.viaverde.pt/en/home/s/identificador?s=identificador" href="https://visitors.viaverde.pt/en/home/s/identificador?s=identificador" target="_blank">www.visitors.viaverde.pt</a>.<br /><br /><strong>Electronic Tolls</strong><br /><br />Lanes with <strong>electronic tolls</strong> are duly identified. There are no toll booths on these roadways, employing instead a collection system that is exclusively electronic, in which the passage of vehicles is detected by means of electronic gateways.<br />To make the corresponding payment, <strong>vehicles with foreign number plates</strong> may use the forms of payment listed at <strong><a title="https://www.portugaltolls.com/en/node" href="https://www.portugaltolls.com/en/node" target="_blank">www.portugaltolls.com</a></strong>. There are several possibilities that are intended specifically and solely for the electronic lanes, whose purchase may also be done online:<br />- <strong>Easytoll</strong> - associates the bankcard to the vehicle’s license plate and the fee is debited directly from the bank account; it is valid for 30 days;<br />- <strong>Tollcard</strong> - pre-paid card with a fixed amount (5, 10, 20 or 40 euros) to be consumed depending on its usage and it is valid for one year after being activated;<br />- <strong>3 Day Virtual Card</strong> - Valid for 3 days with unlimited journeys and only available for Class 1 (including motorcycles) and Class 2 vehicles;<br />- <strong>Multi Journey Virtual Card</strong> - For predefined routes starting from or terminating at the airports in Porto and Faro.<br /><br />It is also possible to use the <a title="https://www.ctt.pt/particulares/pagamentos/pagar-servicos-portagens/portagens/matriculas-estrangeiras/index" href="https://www.ctt.pt/particulares/pagamentos/pagar-servicos-portagens/portagens/matriculas-estrangeiras/index" target="_blank"><strong>CTT Temporary device</strong></a> which, after pre-loading, is only valid on highways with an exclusively electronic collection system and <a title="https://www.viaverde.pt/particulares" href="https://www.viaverde.pt/particulares" target="_blank"><strong>Via Verde devices</strong></a> valid on all tolls, electronic or not, and on bridges.<br /><br /><strong>Interoperability with other countries' systems<br /></strong>Currently, all Via-T devices (Spain) and some French devices are accepted on the national highway network, both in the exclusively electronic systems and in the traditional barriers, where lanes dedicated to Via Verde customers can be used. <br />The use of the service will depend on the issuer of your device, so we recommend that, before using it on Portuguese highways, you contact your issuer and confirm that the service is active.<br /><br /><strong>Vehicles with Portuguese number plates<br /></strong>As for <strong>vehicles with Portuguese number plates</strong>, in the case of rental vehicles, some companies, for the convenience of their customers, have installed electronic toll-payment devices, rolling the cost into the prices charged. If the vehicles do not have devices installed, customers usually make the payment afterwards at Post Offices (Estações de Correio - CTT) or shops belonging to the Payshop network, as of the second day after passing through the tollgate. The deadline for payment is 15 working days, after which the driver will be in violation and subject to a fine.</p></div> <div class="info_util_collapse_botao"> <div class="read-more-button-container ver_mais"> <a href="#read_more_195665" class="detail-button-text" title="Read more">Read more<span class="btn-img-arrow-right"></span></a> </div> <div class="read-less-button-container ver_menos hidden"> <a href="#read_less_195665" class="detail-button-text" title="Read less">Read less<span class="btn-img-arrow-right"></span></a> </div> </div> </div>  <div class="clearfix"></div> </div> <div class="sobre-portugal-block-narrow clearfix"><hr /></div> <div class="sobre-portugal-block-narrow clearfix less_bottom_space"> <div class="sobre-portugal-info-icon"> <img src='https://cdn.visitportugal.com/sites/default/files/styles/sobre-portugal-info-util/public/Icon_SobrePT_0006_Transportes.jpg?itok=5mCyztzb' title="Transports" alt="Transports" /> </div> <div class="sobre-portugal-block-narrow-util-text"> <div class='info-util-title'>Transports</div> <div class='info-util-description-collapse'><p><strong>Air</strong><br />Portugal’s excellent geographical position makes it a stopover point for many foreign airlines at <strong>airports</strong> all over the country:<br />Lisbon - Humberto Delgado Airport - Phone: 218 413 500<br />Oporto - Francisco Sá Carneiro Airport - Phone: 229 432 400<br />Faro - Gago Coutinho Airport - Phone. 289 800 800<br />Funchal, Madeira - Cristiano Ronaldo Airport - Phone: 291 520 700<br />Ponta Delgada, Azores - João Paulo II Airport - Phone: 296 205 400<br /><br /><strong>ANA - Aeroportos de Portugal, SA</strong> is the Portuguese airport authority and provides departure and arrival information on <a title="https://www.ana.pt/en" href="https://www.ana.pt/en" target="_blank">www.ana.pt</a>.<br /><br />There are several Portuguese<strong> airlines</strong> offering regular domestic and international flights.<br />TAP - Air Portugal (<a title="https://www.flytap.com/en-pt/" href="https://www.flytap.com/en-pt/" target="_blank">www.flytap.com</a>) is the country’s "flagship" airline and has scheduled flights to more than 80 international destinations and domestic flights between Lisbon, Oporto, Faro, Madeira and the Azores, and also between Madeira and Porto Santo.<br />SATA Azores Airlines (<a title="https://www.azoresairlines.pt/en" href="https://www.azoresairlines.pt/en" target="_blank">www.azoresairlines.pt</a>) has regular flights between all the islands of the Azores and from the Azores to Madeira and mainland Portugal.
