Cascais
Cascais is 30 kilometres from Lisbon, near Cabo da Roca. Just 2 miles from Estoril it still retains its past as a fishing village but has become a modern town and stylish summer resort. Cascais enjoys a sophisticated nightlife and attracts jetsetters from all corners of the globe. It has a pretty town with modern shops and the streets and walks are paved in colourful cobblestones. Little town beaches with charming surroundings and the picture perfect harbour where you will see yachts and colourful fishing boats by the docks bobbing on the water. Within easy reach of Cascais is the famous beach at Guincho with its high waves attracting windsurfers from all around the world. Cascais boasts a smart new marina adding a further attraction to the town.

Estoril
Beaches on the Estoril Coast face south in a continuous line from the Tagus estuary and are known for their calm waters and fine sand.
The Estoril casino is the largest in Europe. There is a great deal of entertainment here including nightly cabaret and music hall shows in a sophisticated atmosphere. Estoril is very picturesque, you can sit on the boardwalk over-looking the beach or take a stroll in the park. On both sides of the park which is just across from the train station, there are plenty of stylish shops and restaurants. For golfers there are several championship golf courses available.
