jrc,

I've heard that while the food can be great in Portugal (esp if you like seafood and wines), a lot of the coastal towns (ie, beaches) can be a little on the "dirty" side. Online I've seen lots of great pictures and read lots of great things, but from people I know with firsthand accounts I've heard they could be cleaner. It's not like you're going to be dodging hypodermic needles in the sand, but I've heard there are some that you'd want to avoid.
