Choosing to begin your journey in Portugal is often about embracing a whole new lifestyle. Chasing a slower pace, better weather, and beautiful surroundings. But truly feeling at home always comes down to something much deeper: finding your community.
On the Silver Coast, that genuine sense of belonging often happens in the most unexpected places. Like right on the sidelines of a local rugby pitch in Caldas da Rainha.
That’s why our platform, Portugal the Simple Life, is so proud to support the Caldas Rugby Club.
For us, this sponsorship isn't just business, it’s personal. Our podcast host and Sales Director at Portugal Realty, Dylan Herholdt, is one of the club’s coaches, and his son proudly plays on the team.

How the Silver Coast community is growing closer, one game at a time
In recent years, Portugal has seen a vibrant shift in its local sports culture, with a growing adoption of activities traditionally favored by foreign and expat communities. Rugby is a perfect example: a sport with deep roots in countries like the UK, France, South Africa, and Australia, it has found a welcoming home right here on the Silver Coast.
Rather than remaining an exclusive expat pastime, these sports are acting as powerful bridges for local integration.
"Caldas Rugby Club isn’t just about weekly matches and training sessions. It has evolved into a vibrant, multicultural hub where expat and local families connect naturally. It’s a place where children grow in confidence and learn teamwork, and where lifelong friendships form on the sidelines just as easily as on the field."
This organic mixing of cultures is enriching the local fabric. While the kids share the pitch and speak the universal language of sport, parents from all backgrounds gather to share stories, support the team, and build a stronger, more inclusive community.
Real Connection. Real Community.
This beautiful blend of cultures is exactly what makes life on the Silver Coast so special.
It proves that integration doesn't mean losing your roots; it means sharing your passions to build something new together. The Caldas Rugby Club perfectly embodies this spirit, blending local traditions with the fresh energy brought by those who now call Portugal home.
We love being part of this local family, and can’t wait to see the club continue to thrive, one match at a time!
