AN OASIS NEAR ALENTEJO COAST
THE BEST OF TWO WORLDS
Only 25 km from Vila Nova de Milfontes beach, Figueirinha Ecoturismo is a place of absolute tranquility in a valley settled among oak and olive trees. Here its easy to wander between land and sea, between sand and fields covered with ferns and rockrose flowers.
After our oasis in Alentejo, we crossed half of the Atlantic to settle ourselves on the beautiful island of São Miguel (Azores, Portugal). Visit our house, at the north-east side of São Miguel.

“Histórias à Sombra do Montado” wins Figueirinha Nature Award 2023
Figueirinha Ecoturismo awarded Rita Gonzalez and Hugo Tornelo, coordinators of the “Histórias à Sombra do Montado” project, the Figueirinha Nature Award 2023. Inspired by the popular saying “who cares about their grandchildren plants a cork oak”, this graphic novel project calls attention to the importance of preserving the cork oak forest as a true reserve of natural biodiversity. The stories were written by Ana Bárbara Pedrosa, Ana Margarida de Carvalho, Afonso Cruz and Luís Afonso, and designed by Joana Afonso, João Maio Pinto, Marta Teives and Nuno Saraiva, with graphic design by Rui Santos.
The stories are available for free download on the website: www.historiasasombradomontado.pt

SWEET DREAMS
The access to the property and the garden is through a wrought iron gate designed by a friend of the family (Mário). On the right side, facing south is the century-old house where the owners of the hill live and where the family room is.
LIVING
A community kitchen was built around the ancient wooden oven, where in the old days people from the valley used to bake bread. Whoever then the Portuguese to develop human relationships around a great plate of food?
FIGUEIRINHA ECOSYSTEM
We grow a biological vegetable garden for our own consumption. Cabbages, tomatoes, lettuce, peppers, leaks, beets, onions, courgettes are a few examples of what we have in our land, depending of course on the season.
