Aveiro, Administrative district in central coastal Portugal

The district spans 2,808 square kilometers along the Atlantic coast, containing 19 municipalities with a total population of 713,578 residents.

Established in 1835, the district emerged from the former provinces of Beira Litoral and Douro Litoral, developing into a central administrative region.

The district preserves traditional salt production methods in Ria de Aveiro lagoons, continuing practices that date from the 12th century.

The district connects to major Portuguese cities through railway networks and maintains regional air services from its central location.

The district contains numerous canals traversed by moliceiro boats, while its coastline features distinctive striped houses in Costa Nova.
