Portuguese term or phrase: Pevideiras
These are the traditional women of Nazaré. I'm not even sure whether I should translate the term.

'Desça à Praia e, durante um passeio pela marginal não deixe de reparar nos barcos típicos, nas sete saias das "Pevideiras" ou no peixe, seco ao sol.'

Thanks in advance for your help!
