LOCATION & GETTING HERE

Location

The Surf House is located on a calm area only about 10 minutes walking to the beach Foz do Lizandro and 15 minutes to the center of the village. With 3 shared rooms (male, female and mix), a full equipped kitchen, a cozy living room and a large outside chill area where you can relax and enjoy the view.

 

Ericeira is an ancient village thought to be a place of passage and a settlement for the Phoenicians.

 

“The village of Ericeira had its first documented charter in 1229, granted by King Ferdinand Frei Rodrigues Monteiro, Master of Cavalry and Military Order of St. Benedict of Aviz”, renewed by King Manuel I in 1513.

 

“The charters were primarily intended to regulate the local public law, defining and regulating the county’s relationship to the royal power and the landlord of the locality” (…) “The customs of the villages were not simply important enough to be introduced in their charters (…) but made the law in this area. The customs provided the true strength of the written laws. ”

 

At other times, Ericeira was largely a place for a population of seafarers, known as the Jagoz. This was a geographically defined ethnic group, distinct from the other inhabitants of the Saloia region, which formed across many centuries.

 

Ericeira’s heyday came in the 19th century, when it became the busiest port and customs in Extremadura, responsible for supplying most of the province. As the site of the departure of the Portuguese royal family as they left for exile, an event which marked the end of the national monarchy, Ericeira is one of the most dramatic sites in the Mafra area.

 

Its beaches and fishing grounds, alongside its heritage and gastronomy, with outstanding fish and seafood, are now amongst the biggest attractions of this seaside town.

 

Legend has it that the meaning of the name, Ericeira, or “terra de ouriços”, comes from the many sea urchins (ouriços-do-mar in Portuguese) that abounded on its beaches.

 

However, recent research suggests that hedgehogs (ouriços caixeiros) might provide the inspiration for the village’s name. The discovery of an ancient coat of arms from the village, now in the Archive-Museum of Mercy, confirmed this idea, showing an animal that is in fact, a hedgehog, a species that evokes the Phoenician goddess, Astarte.
