What do I need to know before moving to Ericeira?

"Ericeira is a small fishing village known for its stunning beaches and world-class surfing conditions. Before moving there, expats should know that the cost of living is relatively low compared to other European countries, but higher than other parts of Portugal. The official language is Portuguese, so learning the basics of the language will be beneficial, although English is widely spoken in tourist areas. The climate in Ericeira is Mediterranean, with mild winters and warm summers, making it a pleasant place to live year-round. The healthcare system in Portugal is of a high standard, with both public and private options available. Expats should ensure they have appropriate health insurance coverage. Ericeira is a popular tourist destination, so it can get crowded during the peak summer months. The local cuisine is heavily seafood-based, reflecting its fishing village roots. The village is small, so while there are amenities and services, there is not the same level of choice or convenience as in a larger city. Public transportation is available, but having a car can be more convenient for getting around and exploring the surrounding areas. The village is safe, with a low crime rate, but as with any tourist destination, it's important to be aware of your surroundings and take basic precautions. The pace of life in Ericeira is slower than in a city, which can be a big adjustment for some. The locals are known for being friendly and welcoming to foreigners. Finally, it's important to note that while Ericeira is a beautiful place to live, job opportunities can be limited, particularly for those who do not speak Portuguese," wrote a member who made the move to Ericeira, Portugal.
