AREA
Sintra is well known for its historic buildings, palaces and beautiful gardens. The Pena Palace is situated on top of the Sintra mountain next to the Moorish Castle. It can be reached by car, bus, horse drawn carriage or on foot! It is a very steep climb and only the very fit should attempt to walk! The town itself is a very popular tourist area and has many places of interest and a tourist office. Cascais, Estoril and Lisbon provide all that you may require in the way of shops, museums, historic buildings, night-life and a casino. Further north the Mafra palace and the fishing port of Ericeira are worth a visit. Between Guincho and Adraga beaches lies the most westerly point of Europe- Caba da Roca. A monument by the lighthouse marks the point.
ATLANTIC COAST
The Atlantic coast provides wonderful surfing and boarding. Some of the Portuguese championships are held along these beaches. Several are easily accessible and have very good facilities including cafe/bars and excellent seafood restaurants. They are very popular at weekends. Take care when swimming - the strong undertow and currents can be dangerous in the big breakers!! The beaches at Praia Grande and Praia Macas have swimming pools open to the public.
