It has three short canals cut to move salt and seaweed, some very good art nouveau and a lagoon. It is worth a day on those terms rather than as a Venice substitute.\r\nHow long do you need? | A day covers the canals, the art nouveau streets and Costa Nova. It sits on the main line an hour from Porto and an hour from Coimbra, so most people stop rather than stay.\r\nWhat are ovos moles? | Sweetened egg yolk in a thin wafer shell, shaped like fish and shells, sold by the tray for a couple of euros. They have EU protected status and they are extremely sweet.\r\nAre the moliceiro boats worth \u20ac15? | For forty-five minutes on the canals, yes, once. The better reason is the paintings on the prows, which are traditionally satirical and often obscene \u2014 worth asking about rather than taking the commentary at face value.\r\nHow do I get to the striped houses? | Costa Nova is fifteen to twenty minutes by bus for about \u20ac2.50, running frequently in summer. Praia da Barra with its lighthouse is slightly closer on the same road.\r\nIs Aveiro a good base for Porto? | It works if Porto is full or expensive \u2014 an hour each way for \u20ac4, and beds at half the price. You lose the evenings in Porto, which are a large part of why people go there.\r\nWhen should I visit? | May, June or September.
