Cascais
Cascais is located between the Sintra mountains and the Atlantic Ocean, on the famous Estoril Coast. Since the end of the 19th century, it has been a very popular tourist destination due to its mild climate, beautiful beaches, and landscapes. In terms of architecture, as in other coastal locations, monuments related to defense and navigation stand out: the Fortress of Nossa Senhora da Luz, the Guincho Fort, the Guia Lighthouse, and the Santa Marta Lighthouse. Another great attraction of Cascais is its coastline, especially the beautiful Guincho beach, located in the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park, and the famous "Boca do Inferno" (Hell's Mouth), a cave carved into the rock, whose name comes from the frightening impact of the waves on the rock. Highlights include dishes of fresh fish and seafood, such as the famous Cascais sole, sea bass, and sea bream.
