Cascais is a delightful Portuguese fishing town, which has a charming center and is situated close to some of the finest beaches of the Lisbon region. Contained within Cascais is a range of interesting tourist attractions, including fascinating museums, historic mansions, and pretty parks, along with all the facilities expected for a bustling resort town. Cascais has a beautiful coastline of glorious sandy beaches. The beaches within walking distance of Cascais offer golden sands, clean sea waters and great tourist facilities of bars, cafes, and restaurants. These beaches are suitable for children and families, as they are supervised by lifeguards and have calm sea waters, but they can get very busy at the height of the summer. To the north of Cascais, the beaches face the might of the Atlantic Ocean and are pounded by huge waves, making them ideal for surfing. This region lies within the Serra de Sintra nature park and the beaches have a wild and rugged appearance with virtually no tourist development. The best beach of this northern coastline is Guincho and is 8km from Cascais. Surrounding Cascais is a varied region, of lively resort towns and the beautiful natural scenery of the Serra de Sintra, with its numerous hiking routes and outstanding surfing. There is a lot to see and do in Cascais, and this has established Cascais as a respected holiday destination and popular day trip from Lisbon.

The Cabo da Roca is the most westerly point of mainland Europe and is a barren, wind-blasted landscape of massive cliffs and raging seas. The main attraction of the Cabo da Roca is the raw beauty of nature. There are short hiking routes along the cliff tops, but most visitors head here for the scenery, or to simply boast that they’ve been to the “most westerly point”. The headland is 15km north of Cascais, and there is a bus service (route 403) from the main bus station.

The 16th Fortaleza da Cidadela was a mighty fort that guarded the mouth of the Tejo Estuary against sea bound attacks, and comprises of solid walls and imposing battlements. The fort has been since transformed into a stylish hotel and artisan center. The artisan scene is more boutique focused with marina close by but is certainly worth a visit.

The Parque Marechal Carmona is the pretty gardens that surround the Condes de Castro Guimarães mansion. These tranquil gardens include a duck pond, petting zoo of domestic animal and flower gardens. The park is always calm, where peacocks slowly strolling and Portuguese families enjoying picnics.

The Mercado da Vila is the traditional covered market of Cascais. Inside is a range of stalls selling freshly caught fish, fresh vegetables and fruits, local produce and classical handicrafts. As with all Portuguese markets visit early in the day as it is all finished by 2 pm. While at the market don’t miss the detailed Azulejos tile paintings on the rear of the building which details the heritage of Cascais.

The Centro Cultural de Cascais is an art museum that displays touring exhibits and has a selection of permanent displays. Unbelievable the vividly painted pink building was once a convent.

Bairros

This is a very pleasant place to walk around and explore. There are Restaurants and Pubs and it´s a very safe and secure area ( as all Cascais in general) to walk around. Many of the streets are cut to traffic, so it is very nice and safe to do it with children also.
