Cabo da Roca, a cape, set 150 meters above the sea level is the westernmost point of mainland Europe. The panoramic view of the ocean, the coast, and Serra de Sintra is overwhelming. It’s also the start and finish point of Sintra-Cascais’s Natural Park several treks. Here you can overlook the Atlantic ocean's immensity and take a superb breath of fresh air.

Stop 3

Cascais is a charmingly beautiful bay, in the nearby coastline of Lisboa. During the 19th century, when it became a vacation destination for aristocratic Lisboners the once fisherman village evolved into a cosmopolitan getaway. During WWII it was the perfect place for wealthy European refugees, amongst whom were the exiled kings of Italy and Spain. The ambience during the war was exquisite, full of secrecy, inviting to spies, politicians, diplomats and war actors.

Sintra's most significant landmark, Palácio da Pena is a royal 19th century, colourful, flamboyant palace.

It’s a white sandy beach with cliffs and rocks, famous for its waves, the typical wind, and single dune surroundings, part of the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park. Ideal for tourists who enjoy being immersed in nature. For surfers, it’s heaven on earth
