Lisbon Coast Holidays - Travel Guide

The towns in the Lisbon Coast holiday region are situated close to Portugal’s attractive capital city and have a warm Mediterranean type of climate. The beaches in the area of Estoril on the Lisbon Coast face south in a continuous line from the river Tagus estuary and are acknowledged for having calm waters and fine sand.

Excellent facilities are in place and a line of bars and restaurants along the Lisbon Coast give ample opportunity to relax and enjoy the fine weather. There's a number of first-rate golf courses in the area as well as facilities for tennis and horse riding. From the Cascais marina the sailing club has facilities for boat hire and all manner of water sports to make your holiday even more lively and entertaining.

The attractive architecture of the region adds to the numerous charms of Lisbon Coast holidays. The famous Portuguese cuisine is both deliciously tasty and excellent value for money. A particular favourite of Lisbon Coast holidays is the ubiquitous sardine dishes that can be enjoyed with a glass of superb Portuguese wine.

A boat trip from Cascais marina is a great way to see the Lisbon coastline from an entirely different perspective. The casino in Estoril is an exciting night out and a lively place to get dressed up and enjoy a few drinks while fluttering away some Euros. Portugal’s capital Lisbon is a tremendous city to visit, especially since its rejuvenation in the 1990’s. With an improved modern infrastructure it is now much easier to enjoy Lisbon’s historic buildings and mediaeval structures. A must-see feature of Lisbon holidays is the Alfama quarter, the oldest part of the city and the perfect place to soak up the vibrant atmosphere in the weekly flea market.

In June the streets come alive with festivals that celebrate the popular saints. The tile-covered buildings that line the narrow mediaeval streets are an excellent place to take a stroll or to enjoy a bit of shopping.
