Maria do Mar

Maria do Mar combines a conservas shop with tasting plates made from Portuguese tinned fish on Rua Direita in Portimão.

What to expect

Sardines, tuna and mackerel appear among the preserved seafood sold here. The food offer turns those tins into petiscos served with bread and accompaniments, connecting a light meal with Portimão’s canning heritage.

Choose it for a tasting-style stop or for buying conservas to take home. Ask the team to explain the fish and preparation when selecting a tin for the table. A shared selection gives several people a way to compare flavours without ordering a conventional grilled-fish main.
