Cascais is a coastal town located 30 km west of Lisbon, known for its sunny, laid-back atmosphere, infused with a touch of hedonism and sophistication. Could it be described as “hippie chic”?
Visitors can enjoy the beach for half the year and engage in activities like running, biking, or surfing throughout the year. Alternatively, they can embark on a culinary adventure, savoring grilled fish freshly caught from the sea. A simple train ride can lead to indulging in an ice cream at Santini, one of Cascais’ finest treats. Moreover, the Sun Coast’s capital is an ideal spot for relaxation, where one can simply gaze at the sea while enjoying the social scene. It’s important to note that the town’s current glamour and allure were not always present. Just 150 years ago, Cascais was a deserted ghost town, which, through an extraordinary transformation akin to a magic trick, evolved into a prestigious retreat. This tour aims to illuminate the fascinating and enduring changes in the Portuguese Riviera.
