Day by day in Cascais

Day 1
Day 1: Arrival and getting your bearings
Boca do Inferno is a rocky chasm into which the sea thunders, and the way there leads over cliff paths. On the day of arrival a short walk with a windproof jacket is enough. You can hear the surf from afar. Wind and salt make even a short walk tiring, pack a thin windproof jacket.

Accommodation: Onyria Golf Resorts
Day 2
Day 2: A stage day
The Sintra-Cascais Natural Park is a coastal and forest area with paths over cliffs. Oitavos Dunes is a golf course between dunes and pines, with wind that changes every shot. A stage day that demands legs and concentration. The path at the edge of the cliffs is partly exposed, stay on the marked paths.

Day 3: Exploring
The Estoril Golf Club and the driving range at Quinta da Marinha invite you to long rounds. The Fort of Guincho lies on the beach, a place for wind and surfers. You alternate between turf and sand. The wind freshens in the afternoon, so play in the morning.

The Cabo Raso Lighthouse stands at a rugged spot on the coast, with a long walk on foot. Afterwards you see Boca do Inferno and the natural park a second time, at a different tide.

Day 8: An active day
Quinta da Marinha and the Fort of Guincho: first practice, then wind. At the fort you see kitesurfers and waves, a spectacle that you watch from the beach. An active day with plenty of fresh air. Treat yourself to fish at the harbour, your muscles need protein after the wind.

Day 9
Day 9: Nature and movement
Cascais and Praia da Arriba, plus Ribeira, in one long round. You hike, swim and eat fish at the harbour. A day that shows the coast in motion and challenges your legs properly. Your legs will get tired, walk the route in two stages and rest by the water.

Day 10
Day 10: Last day and departure
The last day belongs to Santa Marta, a short morning walk by the water. Then comes the transfer, the rucksack is packed. The salt on your skin stays for a while yet. Shake the salt out of your bags before it attacks the zips. After the days in the wind, skin and lips are dry, care helps before the flight.
