ACTIVITIES

SINTRA
The romantic town of Sintra, praised by Lord Byron, is a must for those visiting the Estoril Coast. Less than ten kilometres away, this area is particularly attractive for its lush vegetation and the original architecture of the houses, mostly dating back to the XIX century. Most important monuments are the Sintra National Palace (Paço Real or Palácio da Vila), situated in the old quarter and the Pena National Palace and Park, approx. 4.5 km from old quarter. The Queluz National Palace, 15 km from the historic centre of Sintra is also worth to be visited as are it's parks and gardens.

The Estoril Coast line and the coast to the west – at the foot of the Sintra hills is worth visiting at all the times of the year. One of the most important places for the visitor is of course, Lisbon - capital of Portugal and relatively close to Cascais. There are many places to see and things to do in this area. We suggest you check out the information in the contents section of the Lisbon hotels.

CABO DA ROCA
The most westerly point of Europe, a magnificent cliff overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Enjoy the delightfully unspoilt countryside, the low-growing vegetation and in the spring, the white carpet of Armeria Pseudarmeria, unique to this area.

ESTORIL
An internationally known resort, Estoril has all the facilities you will need together with a natural beauty and individual architecture blending with the surroundings. It is worth taking a stroll along to Monte Estoril, where you will find many pretty buildings on the way. In the park in front of the Casino, a colourful scene pleases the eye, edged by tall, tropical palm trees. Without losing any of its natural charm, Estoril has spread and now offers many facilities for the visitor.

BEACHES
Guincho beach, lying at the foot of the Sintra hills and facing the Atlantic, should not be missed. Also visit Praia Grande and Praia da Adraga in Colares after Cabo da Roca.
