The dating scene in Coimbra

Coimbra is Portugal's historic university city, built on a hill above the Mondego river and full of student traditions. Its large student population gives it a youthful, romantic and sometimes bohemian atmosphere, while professionals work in health, research and public services. Dating is relaxed and often revolves around cafés, student bars and walks through the old town. The city has a strong romantic heritage, from Coimbra fado to the legend of Pedro and Inês.

Date ideas in Coimbra

  1. Tour the University of Coimbra and the baroque Joanina Library
  2. Listen to Coimbra fado in a small venue in the old town
  3. Walk through the Jardim Botânico and the nearby Penedo da Saudade
  4. Visit the Quinta das Lágrimas gardens and their love legend
  5. Kayak or walk along the Mondego river and through the Choupal woods
  6. Have drinks in the student bars around Praça da República

Local dating tips

  • Coimbra fado is traditionally sung by men in academic dress; listen in silence as a sign of respect.
  • The Queima das Fitas student festival in May is lively but very crowded.
  • Wear good shoes; the old town is steep and full of stairs.
