Potential places to live

8 years ago
My wife and I have been investigating retiring to Portugal for months now, and we're planning a trip to visit places we're interested in. We're focusing on the Silver coast from just north of Lisbon to Viana do Castelo.. Does anyone have any input on the following cities/towns? Obidos, Nazare, Caldas da Rainha, Coimbra, Leiria, Braga, Guimaraes, Porto and Viana do Castelo.

We want to be relatively close to the coast and have access to amenities such as decent groceries and hospitals.

We've ruled out Lisbon and Cascais as too expensive and the Algarve because it just doesn't appeal to us.

Any input on the cities we're looking at would be appreciated.
