Cascais Must-Sees

Cascais combines maritime history with 19th-century aristocratic architecture. This coastal town features the Boca do Inferno chasm, the 15th-century Fortaleza de Nossa Senhora da Luz, and the iconic blue-and-white tiled Santa Marta Lighthouse. Cultural highlights include the Eduardo Souto de Moura-designed Casa das Histórias and the eclectic Museu Condes Castro Guimarães. Sandy beaches like Praia da Rainha and Praia da Conceição line the shore, while the historic town center preserves its origins as a traditional fishing village and royal summer retreat.
