Tourism
Tourism plays a key role in the life and economy of Ericeira. Being the only world surfing reserve in Europe and third in the world, the parish is known worldwide for the ideal conditions for surfing and bodyboarding, in particular on the beaches of Foz do Lisandro and Ribeira D'Ilhas, one of the stages of the ASP World Tour. In recent years we have witnessed the increase of facilities to support the practice of these sports, from training centers, hostels for surfers, among other types of infrastructures.

The village benefits from its proximity to the city of Lisbon and also the construction of the A21 motorway, being the ideal place, for thousands of people who live in the capital and surroundings of the same, to spend the weekend, taking advantage of the excellent gastronomy local and the tranquility of the picturesque village and escape the always full beaches of Costa da Caparica and the Cascais Line.

Sumol Summer Fest, the biggest reggae music event in the country, takes place every year at Ericeira Camping in June, bringing thousands of people, mainly young people, to Ericeira.
