Cascais, Estoril & the Coast
A relaxed day along the Atlantic. Grand Estoril, seaside Cascais, the cliffs of Cabo da Roca, and time with your feet in the sand.
Some days are simply about the sea. You follow the coast road west from Lisbon, past grand Estoril and into seaside Cascais, out to the cliffs of Cabo da Roca where the land finally runs out. And back to the sand, with time to swim if the mood takes you.
A day drawn around the coast
The coast road & Estoril
The scenic Atlantic drive from Lisbon, past the grand belle-époque resort of Estoril and its famous casino.
Cabo da Roca
The westernmost point of mainland Europe. Cliffs, lighthouse, and nothing but ocean ahead of you.
Boca do Inferno
Cascais' dramatic sea grotto, where the Atlantic roars into the rock.
Guincho & the sand
Free time on the wild beach at Guincho, lunch by the sea, and a swim if you feel like it.

Private, by the car
One price for your whole party, not per person. Choose the car that suits you; your guide and the day are the same.
Meals are not included. Lunch by the sea is at your expense, and we're glad to recommend the best tables. There are no entrance tickets needed for this coastal day.
Questions, answered
How long is the day?
About 7 hours, door to door, with pick-up and drop-off at your Lisbon hotel: an unhurried day with plenty of time by the sea.
Is there time to swim?
Yes. There's free time at Guincho and along the coast. Bring swimwear and a towel if you'd like a dip; the Atlantic here is bracing and beautiful.
Can we add Sintra?
Cascais and Sintra sit close together, but each deserves its own day. If you'd like to combine the highlights of both, tell us and we'll design a tailored route.
Is it good for families?
Very: the beaches, the lighthouse at Cabo da Roca and the open coast make it one of our easiest, most relaxed days for travellers of all ages.
Can you take a larger group?
Yes, for larger groups we arrange a private coach with your guide. Tell us your numbers and we'll tailor it.
