Field notes

The 'Venice of Portugal' branding is overstated but the lagoon and moliceiros are genuinely scenic. University of Aveiro is the cultural anchor and creates the only real coworking density. 50 minutes by train to Porto, two hours to Lisbon. Same D8 / Schengen rules. Costa Nova (the striped beach houses) is 15 minutes by car — a popular weekend default.

Cooler and wetter than Lisbon — summers cap around 21°C rather than 23–25°C, winters are damp-mild with frequent rain. Lagoon-fog (nevoeiro) shows up regularly in autumn and early winter. The shoulders are the comfort windows; July–August are the only consistently warm-dry stretches.
