- A Póvoa de Varzim possuiu uma economia diversificada, cuja espinha dorsal assenta no turismo (nomeadamente o jogo, hotéis e restaurantes) e no sector alimentar (em especial o sectores da produção de leite, horticultura e pescas). O maior desenvolvimento da Póvoa de Varzim deveu-se ao facto de se ter tornado o principal porto de pesca do norte do país no século XVIII e no maior centro balnear do Norte no século XIX. Revelou-se também como um importante centro no sector leiteiro e hortícola. (pt)
