Ensuring that you have a consistent and functional online connection should be at the top of your agenda when nomading, retiring, or surfing your way through stunning Portugal. Whether you're working on a tight deadline or sharing your surf escapades, fast and reliable internet is key. Fortunately, with Portugal's advanced technological infrastructure, staying connected is simpler than most think.

Portugal boasts an impressive internet network, with high-speed broadband widely available. In most urban settings, including the breath-taking town of Nazare, companies like MEO, NOS, and Vodafone offer competitive internet packages starting from as low as €25/month. Do your research and select a package that best suits your needs. Remember that living closer to city centers usually brings better connectivity.

If you prefer not to be tied to a monthly contract, a pre-paid mobile internet plan is another option. Most providers offer blisteringly fast 4G coverage that covers almost all of the country. This can be especially convenient if you plan on travelling a fair bit around the country, or while sipping a coffee in a beach-side café.
