2025 Cascais Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

#DecemberTravelSupportEvent If you go to Portugal, getting a tan in Cascais is a must🫶🏽 Cascais is a city that can be reached in about 30-40 minutes from Lisbon🇵🇹 I wanted to visit places that locals go to in Lisbon. That's why I visited Cascais! This is a place where Lisbon people go for a vacation. It was hot and humid even in April, so it was full of people swimming. There was also a place to wash up, so I was able to enjoy tanning and swimming on the beach.🩵 📍Cascais Cascais / Praia da Rainha, Cascais, Portugal #Europe #EuropeTravel #Portugal #Lisbon #LisbonTravel #PortugalBeach #Cascais #lisbon #portugal #europetrip

#100 Ways to Travel A day trip to #Sintra, Portugal, took a car away from the end of the world #Cabo de Roca, and unexpectedly encountered Kenting #Cascais in Lisbon, a seaside resort town with a beautiful coastline and traditional Portuguese architecture. Cascais forms a ring with Cabo da Roca and Sintra, and is usually included in a day trip itinerary. The train then connects to the Belém district and returns to Lisbon. Alternatively, you can stay overnight and enjoy the beach and eat egg tarts in Belém the next day, which gives you plenty of time to do. After exiting the train station, you will first come to Cascais’ pedestrian shopping street and #10月5日方Praca 5 de Outubro. The blue and white floor tiles are arranged in a wavy shape, which looks particularly cool in photos. You can also stop by McDonald’s to buy a cup of peach black tea. Cross the old town and you will arrive at Praia da Riberia Beach. The soft sand and palm trees, under the sunlight, the light and shadows are staggered, which is quite beautiful! You can also visit the nearby sea cave Boca do Inferno and Cidadela de Cascais Castle. #PortugalFreeTravel #Cascais #Lisbon #cascais #lisbon #100WaysToTravel

Cascais and Estoril.

Cascais is an undeniable luxury beach that you must visit if you are staying in Lisbon, Portugal! It is located about 30km west of the capital city of Lisbon, so it is quite convenient to get to. It has a very familiar feel, similar to Haeundae in Busan and Repulse Bay in Hong Kong!

Joined a fishing tour in Portugal, 75€ per person (at least 2 persons) for 4 hours fishing, the crew will show you how to do it in case you have no experience just like me 😅 It was a good moment especially the weather was great ☀️ It’s my first time fishing, had a bit seasick but the crew was nice, provided me sparkling water and some snacks. And luckily there were many fishes, didn’t expect to catch them easily lol Overall it’s a nice experience even we ended up leaving earlier due to seasickness, we could take the fishes home but we decided not to, and gave all the fishes we caught to the captain. 🙂 Getting There - Train from Lisbon, 4.50€ round trip #fishing #portugal #cascais #wateractivities #europe

The #boca do Inferno is an interesting cliff formation close to #cascais #portugal , which has been given an overly dramatic name of Hell’s Mouth. The ceaseless pounding of the Atlantic Ocean on the cliffs chiselled out a small cave, which subsequently collapsed forming a small bay and natural arch. #unforgetabletri #cliff #happynewyear

The #citadel of #cascais is a set of fortifications built between the 15th and 17th centuries to defend the Cascais coastline and River Tagus estuary and to protect against attacks on the capital #portugal #scenicspotguide #fortress #happynewyear

#cascais #old town Square, it is coastal resort town in #portugal, just west of Lisbon. It’s known for its sandy beaches, busy marina and beautiful gardens. #unforgetabletrip #oldtown #culture

[Cascais] For me, Cascais is a strange town, but as a must-have for a few tens of minutes to go back to Lisbon, I found this It is an extremely comfortable coastal town, which reminds me of Nice in the south of France, It takes only 10 minutes to walk to the beach and the sea breeze from the Atlantic Ocean is less than 10 minutes. This city is extraordinarily young but it was built in 1364 but it is completely different from the old Lisbon, the population is only 180,000 people, and the area is only 97.4 square kilometers. This is a leisurely fishing port and seaside resort, although the city looks new, but in the city you can find churches and 17th century castles (it used to be the official residence of the Portuguese president). After coming to Cascais, you will find that everyone's standard of living is of high quality, there is no such thing as rich people, comfortable small city plus Atlantic beauty, and gentle and mild climate There is such an ideal environment, of course, it has long been occupied by the rich. The ancient city of Cascais is very well preserved, exquisite and delicate, and the skill of repairing, is also a day at the seaside. A good place to go for a chat after sunbathing and enjoy the food.

#europetrip Milkees is a nice little coffee shop. For starters, the service is excellent! The food is delicious and the coffee is outstanding! We order the croissant with butter and jam and also had the toast with olive oil, tomatoes and salt. So delicious. The place is really nice and I would say cute if it was in a better location, but it's still something certainly worth a visit. They are doing construction and according to the sign, it should look better when they're done. Great place!
