Highlights
At 9 a.m., your driver will meet you at a central meeting point and escort you to your private air-conditioned vehicle. From there, head to Azenhas do Mar, a coastal village in the municipality of Sintra with a very picturesque landscape.
Next, make the short drive to Praia da Maçãs, a well-known beach with golden sand and clear water. Locals typically visit to spend time at the ocean as well as the near-by saltwater swimming pool.
Move on to the next beach that happens to be part of the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park; afterward, Praia Grande. While you are there, feel free to explore the neighboring saltwater pool or the traces of dinosaur footprints on the cliff.
Next, discover the most westerly point of continental Europe, Cabo da Roca. From the cliff tops, enjoy the fantastic view of the beaches and the sea.
On the way back, you will have the chance to enjoy Guincho, a beach that serves as a real sanctuary for surfing and windsurfing.
