The weather still allows us to discover Aveiro in shorts and short sleeves. A maximum of 24 degrees is practically a summer temperature in the city of canals, which continues to captivate those who come from far away at this time of year.
The streets show that the peak has passed, but there are still many tourists in the city center. Some decided to come in autumn precisely to avoid the typical summer floods.
The heat of October, with the sun, facilitates walks and visits without the complications of tourism in the rain or cold.
In the moliceiro tour business, it no longer feels like there is a low season in the city. Vanda Fernandes says that, despite the peaks are in August and Easterat this time they receive tourists from other countries such as Israel and Italy.
But the autumn heat isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. Carlos Amaral, chestnut seller, regrets that business is so weak. No rain or cold, there has been almost no demand. It could be that the sale of chestnuts will increase from next weekend, which will bring rain and a slight drop in temperatures.
