How about some days of sun? /
How about some days of sun?
Place: Cascais

A weekend in the sun is the pretext to come and enjoy the light of this star that insists on shining more and more on Portugal.
Accept this invitation and come and relax with us. There’s plenty to do, from just walking along the beach to adrenalin-pumping sports. There are beaches for all tastes and enough sea for wave-lovers to mingle with those who only want to float elegantly at the mercy of the tide.

As Portugal has a wide variety of landscapes in a small territory, it is no wonder that there are also several ways of spending your days in the sun. Around the capital, Lisbon, there are beaches for all tastes, from the secluded beaches of the idyllic area near Sintra to the 30-kilometre-long sands at Costa da Caparica, very popular with Lisboetas. In Cascais, with a more cosmopolitan atmosphere, you can practise water sports such as surfing, windsurfing, diving and sailing.
Besides the richness of its history and heritage, Lisbon has a lively nightlife to complete your days in the sun.

The Algarve has so many beaches that it is difficult to choose between them. And if you play golf, you have chosen the right place to combine going to the beach with your favourite game. If you really want to get away from it all, why not take a hop over the Atlantic to the exotic island of Madeira. Here the luxuriant landscapes, unspoilt nature and fine swimming pools overlooking the sea give you the real feeling of relaxation that you are looking for on a short break from your daily routine.
