Locations, information and details about this tour
Places
we are going to visitSerra da Pescaria
To the south of Nazaré, an outcrop parallel to the coastline where the oldest rocks in the Nazaré region appear, from around 154 million years ago. They are deposits from the Upper Jurassic, which show a close connection with tectonic activity, linked to the 2nd phase of "rifting" of the opening of the Atlantic Ocean and separation of the supercontinent Pangea. The structures present in the Serra da Pescaria also underwent tectonic changes due to the diapiric intrusion characterized by “Margas da Gorda” which originated the “typhonic valley” of Caldas da Rainha. This formation, delimited by inverse faults, originated a valley covered by Mesozoic and Cenozoic sediments, where, on the western edge, we will find the Serra da Pescaria.
Salgado beach
On the western edge of Serra da Pescaria, in the coastal sector of the region south of Nazaré, from the mouth of the Alcoa river to the limit of Salgado beach, we can find an active dune structure, quite complex, formed by two dune cords, separated by an interdune corridor where plant associations show the different mesological conditions that characterize this coastline.
Dinosaur tracks
Late Jurassic structure is essentially characterized by two distinct formations: the “Montejunto Layers”, which date from the Middle to Upper Oxfordian; and Kimeridgiano's “Layers of Alcobaça” (transgressive episode). In these formations, essentially limestone to limestone-margose, we can see two dinosaur tracks, one of them in a sub-vertical layer covered with trace fossils of the genus Thalassinoides. In addition to these dinosaur footprints, we can also observe a large number of other fossils of essentially marine organisms such as bivalves, gastropods, corals, oncoliths, rudists and sponges that indicate a marine facies of higher temperature waters, corresponding to more tropical climates.
