Old windmills on a dike. A beach on the ocean side. Nice area, even though today wasn't beach weather.

The Way of St. James also runs through here. I don't find the town particularly special, nor the beach particularly nice—too many stones in the sand. The cycling and hiking trails are well-developed, and almost every restaurant has free Wi-Fi.

Bridge over the Lima

From the bridge, you have a good view of the Lima River and the city of Viana. However, the pedestrian lane (only the one downstream is open) is very narrow and not really designed for two-way traffic. In Eiffel's time, the entire upper bridge was probably intended for pedestrians and oxcarts. The railway runs one level below: https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponte_Eiffel

always walk along the sea well on the wooden floor

The linguistic proximity of the "Puente Eiffel" here in Portugal and the Eifel mountain range in western Germany is no coincidence: The family of the designer – whose world-famous "Twilight of Paris" (named after its builder) is probably familiar to everyone – has German roots. The ancestors of the Eiffel Tower and bridge builder Gustave EIFFEL come from the Eifel town of Marmagen (in the Euskirchen district, North Rhine-Westphalia). The village square there – if you're interested, see the following hiking highlight https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/1830307 – is named after him.
