I found Cabo da Roca to be beautiful and the ocean crashing against the cliffs. There are some hiking trails to explore, well worth the trip out here.

Stayed a week at Palacio Estoril and did the 5-day green card programme with Daniel. The hotel was first class, classy and with friendly service. The golf lessons with Daniel were great as well. We learned a lot and reached our green card objective. Daniel is a very pleasant guy and instructor as well. We only played the Blue course. For us it was quite challenging, in particular because of the fast greens. That said, a very good learning experience. The booking experience with Kelly at Portugalgolf was excellent as well. We’d certainly consider returning to Estoril. Jyrki & Sonja

Guincho Beach

Lying at the foot of the Sintra hills and facing the Atlantic, this superb beach is not only ideal for wind surfing but also board surfing due to the large breakers.

Reviewed By eurydice2017 - London, United Kingdom

Guincho beach is truly beautiful and unspoiled, pretty much deserted out of season and a must for die hard windsurfers. The water is super cold and tricky, lots of powerful currents and big waves at times. During the season there are life guards in some of the beaches but out of season no, so if you feel adventurous and go for a swim proceed with great care. Or just sit and look and the sea, it is SO amazingly beautiful. Unforgettable sunsets guaranteed too! Big sand dunes and great walks nearby, namely one which starts roughly opposite Fortaleza do Guincho (big yellow building, old fortress) with wood paths to walk on and beautiful meandering paths providing stunning views. Not to miss!

Praia do Magoito

Reviewed By Asia_Be - La Roche-en-Ardenne, Belgium

We decided to go a bit further away from Cabo da Roca area and drove 30 minutes up to get to this beach. It was a lovely place, almost completely deserted at this time of the year, if not for the many surfers enjoying the waves. The kids were in paradise! World's biggest sandpit, just for them! They bathed in the ocean even though it was 1st of November. In our opinion, well worth the drive!
