Mira is a coastal village in the Coimbra district with one of Portugal's most distinctive beaches — Praia de Mira, with its colourful timber palheiros overlooking the sand. The Mira Lagoon, adjacent to the beach, is ideal for sailing and canoeing, and the dense Mira Dunes National Forest forms a protected natural corridor between the lagoon and the Atlantic.
