Day 4

Cascais is a picturesque coastal town located about 30 kilometres west of Lisbon. An ancient fishing village, transformed into a town by royal decree in the 15th century, it became the favourite holiday resort of the ruling house and Portuguese aristocracy in the following centuries, transforming the village into an elegant resort embellished with sumptuous mansions. Famous for its natural beauty, mild climate, golden sandy beaches and charming historic centre, Cascais is a popular holiday destination for visitors from all over the world. The historical centre is a maze of narrow cobbled streets, characterised by colourful buildings, open-air cafés, restaurants and chic shops. The beaches of Cascais are another of its main attractions. Praia da Rainha is one of the most famous. Set among rocks and surrounded by palm trees, it is a great place to relax and sunbathe. Praia do Guincho, on the other hand, is renowned for its waves, making it an ideal destination for surfers and windsurfers.
