The engine growls, the roof is down and salt-laced wind pushes through the open tub of an old UMM as the coastline unfurls—cliffs, beaches and whitewashed houses stacked above the Atlantic. Riders in well-worn seats trade the hum of air conditioning for the raw rhythm of a classic Portuguese jeep, bouncing along dirt tracks that cut through scrub and sand.
