Just arrived back in Porto yesterday from Santiago and stayed at the Parkhotel opposite the airport to stay the night and being early for my flight back home today.
The price of food in the hotel is quite expensive so we decided to explore the area for a local restaurant.
We ended up in a local Portuguese restaurant in the village of Gándra, about 1 km from the Park hotel and the airport.
Sitting and eating and looking outside I suddenly discovered a yellow marker at the other side of the street .
Later I went to the arrow and read the sign next to it and noticed this is a part of the caminho from the airport to Vila do Conde . It links the airport to the coastal. There were some posts about the question how to get from the airport to the coast but as far as I can remember I never read about waymarkers.
Well if you arrive in Porto airport and leave the departurebuilding, your back pointed to the door, turn left and walk to the end of the stretched building to the roundabout There you can cross the road and you see the Park hotel in front of you . Walk in the direction of the hotel You walk on a busy road with at the left side rentalcars companies and parking lots. Turn to the left at the first street (about at the same hight as the Park hotel)
Walk about 600 meters in that street untill you see the "o Convite "grill restaurant. Nice to eat there
At other side of the road opposite the o Convite reataurant you find the waymarker.
