AVEIRO (PORTUGAL)

 


 AVEIRO

GPS: N 40.640506; W 8.653754


Located on the shore of the Atlantic Ocean, Aveiro is an industrial city with an important seaport.
The seat of the municipality is the city of Aveiro, comprising the five urban parishes with about 73,003 inhabitants. The city of Aveiro is also the capital of the District of Aveiro, and the largest city in the Baixo Vouga inter-municipal community subregion.
Aveiro is known as "the Portuguese Venice", due to its system of canals and boats similar to the Italian city of Venice.
Aveiro has a warm-summer Mediterranean climate[6] influenced by its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean. The maritime influence causes a narrow temperature range resulting in summers averaging around 24 °C  in daytime temperatures, considerably lower than inland areas on the same parallel on the Iberian Peninsula. As typical of Mediterranean climates, summers are dry and winters are wet. A coastal feature is that frosts are rare and never severe. The hottest temperature recorded was 39.3 °C. Temperatures above 32 °C  are extremely occasional, and averages only a couple of times per annum
