Detailed itinerary

Cascais Bay is one of the most iconic views of the Portuguese coast — a natural, sheltered bay framed by sandy beaches, elegant seaside palaces, and historic fortresses. Once a strategic haven for fishermen and royal yachts, today it offers calm waters perfect for sailing and sightseeing. From the sea, enjoy a unique perspective of the old town, the Santa Marta Lighthouse, and the coastline that made Cascais a favorite retreat of kings and explorers.

Santa Marta Lighthouse is one of Cascais’ most picturesque landmarks. Built in the 19th century on the site of a former coastal fort, it stands at the entrance to Cascais Bay with its striking white-and-blue tower. Today, it houses a small museum and offers panoramic views of the Atlantic. Seen from the sea, it marks the perfect blend of military history, maritime tradition, and coastal beauty — a true highlight of any cruise along the Estoril Coast.

Stop 3 Pass by

Boca do Inferno (Hell’s Mouth) is a dramatic sea cave carved into the cliffs just west of Cascais. Shaped by centuries of Atlantic waves crashing into the rock, it’s famous for its powerful blowhole and thunderous sound during rough seas. A symbol of nature’s raw force, it offers one of the most striking coastal views in Portugal. From the water, its jagged cliffs and deep chasm are even more impressive — a must-see highlight of any coastal cruise.

Guia Lighthouse stands proudly atop the cliffs west of Cascais, guiding ships safely along the Portuguese coast since the 18th century. Surrounded by pine trees and facing the Atlantic, it marks one of the most scenic points on the Estoril coastline. From the sea, its white tower is a striking sight, symbolizing centuries of maritime tradition and the natural beauty of the rugged shoreline.

Fort of Santo António da Barra is one of the most important coastal fortresses near Lisbon, built in the late 16th century to defend the entrance to the Tagus River. Located in Estoril, this impressive structure once housed King Dom Carlos’s summer residence. From the sea, its robust walls and strategic position offer a glimpse into Portugal’s military and royal maritime history, standing as a powerful sentinel above the waves.
