Cascais, now the bustling heart of Portuguese tourism featuring golden beaches and amazing restaurants, still retains its fisher village charm and an air of mystery.
A BEACH-SIDE TOWN
The old town of Cascais consists of the Senhora da Luz Fort and the Citadel Palace, which used to be a haunt of the Portuguese royal family. Overlooking the ocean, you can stroll from the citadel to the beach in just five minutes.
Now known for its chic casinos, luxury hotels and stunning views, Estoril is also steeped in history, as it used to be a hot spot for second homes of the Spanish, Italian and French royal families . It is claimed that this buzzing coastal town was what inspired James Bond author Ian Fleming when he thought up the story-line for the Casino Royale novel.
DESTINATION FOR HOLIDAY-MAKERS
Forming part of the Golden Triangle of Portugal, Cascais and Estoril are now favoured destinations for holiday-makers worldwide, and it’s no wonder why: golden sandy beaches, 5* restaurants and luxurious hotels juxtapose with the affluent history of these towns to make for a dramatically memorable stay.
