Overview

Anyone taking the train west from Lisbon soon stands on the coast of Cascais. This proximity to the capital makes the place attractive for short breaks, without you having to travel far. The Sintra-Cascais Natural Park begins right behind the town, with paths through forest and over cliffs. At Boca do Inferno the sea beats against the rocks, and the lighthouse at Cabo Raso marks the end of a long coastal hike.

If you travel with golf clubs, you will find several courses in the area that combine outdoor movement with long pauses. Between March and June and in September and October it is mild, the beaches are less crowded, and the Atlantic feels calmer than in the high-summer weeks. From Switzerland it is about 2.5 hours of flying time, and entry is visa-free as a Schengen country. The entry requirements of the FDFA (EDA) are decisive, and you should check them before booking.

Cascais combines well with a day in Lisbon, but the focus should stay on water, wind and free afternoons. A breakfast with a view of the water suits this, then a walk, and after that nothing more until the sun is low.
