The “palafita” (stilt house) at Carrasqueira frames Comporta’s lagoon/waterway with rustic wood, reflections, and coastal haze. Best light is at sunrise or late afternoon when sun rakes across the pilings for texture. Access is via local roads and short walks from the area; expect unpaved paths and limited parking—arrive early and bring water.
