Walking CASCAIS to ESTORIL – Beaches, Parks, Palaces – Sunny Winter Day in Portugal

CASCAIS, PORTUGAL Our first day off from our Workaway at the Cascais Boutique Hostel was lovely and sunny, so we decided to take a walk along the waterfront all the way to Estoril!

We weren’t sure what we would see en route so we bought half a cooked chicken, salad and bread rolls from Pingo Doce, which we didn’t video.

In this video we show:
Stunning palaces
Incredible weather for winter
Brutalist architecture
Different beaches along the way
Best budget lunch menu in Estoril

  1. I lived in Cascais for 4 years – it's a wonderful place! Would give the marina a miss, though….too touristy and boring. However, the paradao, or rather, the seafront path, is beautiful. But be careful: they have terrible high waves sometimes, which have killed people, so don't underestimate the waves. The fruit, vegetable, fish and flower market is on Wednesdays and next to it there's a clothes and pottery market…very cheap and original stuff, also second hand for you bargain hunters. If you want to eat well and cheaply, get a taxi to take you a few minutes up into the hills, where it's more authentic and so cheap, but not for sophisticated soulds. Tamariz is for tourists! I would avoid Estoril, unless you're into gambling or want to see the prime minister buy his pastries in the local bakery – by the way, he's often down at the beach in Cascais and talks to everyone. Very approachable! You'd never see this in the UK. I absolutely love Portugal.

  2. Great walking tour video, as always! Last year, we did the same route as you did (only 1st half, it’s was a quick day trip, we turned around half way). Can’t wait to go back again, love Cascais

  3. Fantastic video—as always. While we visited Cascais in early November 2021; only your video from 3:00 to 6:00 was familiar. So thanks for broadening our familiarity w/Cascais—particularly the city park and library. Looking forward to your upcoming videos. Cheers.

  4. Have you guys visited Aveiro???.., is a really nice cute city, also if you ever go, visit praia da vagueira, there are many beaches around there, more lay back places, very affordable, not as fancy as Praia da Ribeira, but still super nice, more as a fishing town but very lovely place to be

  5. 20 years later and the casino still looks the same 😂😂 i won a prize there in 2002! Cascais is beautiful the coast is ok , it’s pretty but my favourite coast in Lisbon still is Praia da Rainha and Waikiki in Costa da Caparica . The beach bars there are really nice too and more affordable ! Took me back to my teenage years and early adulthood!

    My name was on that wall with the tiles 😇😀 ~ Sara

  6. Be careful of them nature walks When I was France nice sunny day with some freinds saw a sign Balade naturist, soon found out it didn't mean nature walk, thine eyes were blinded lol. Thanks for showing art and ceramics 😎👍

  7. Palácio Estoril:

    During World War II, Portugal was a neutral state. Besides being the point of departure for Jews and others fleeing the Nazi madness to North America, Lisbon was equally an important espionage hub, with agents and double agents tailing each and sometimes meeting openly in the capital’s bars. One of these agents was the Serbian spy and British double agent Dusko Popov … a character who fascinated Ian Fleming when, in 1941, the two men met in Estoril.

    After a brief pre-war career in journalism, Fleming was now working for the Naval Intelligence Division, as personal assistant to its director, Rear Admiral John Godfrey. In May 1941, Fleming and Godfrey visited Lisbon together on their way to Washington to promote intelligence cooperation with the Americans. British Intelligence wanted the Americans to create a foreign intelligence agency similar to MI6. In Washington, Godfrey met with the American President, Roosevelt, while Fleming assisted in drafting a charter for the new agency, to be known as the Office of Strategic Services, the forerunner of the CIA.

    On the return journey to London, later that summer, Fleming again stopped off in Lisbon, deciding to make his headquarters at the Palacio Hotel in Estoril. Frequented by exiled royalty, the Palacio attracted Fleming because it adjoined the Casino where he could gamble and also had a bar that served excellent cocktails. Like Fleming, Popov was a gambler with a taste for women and drink. Godfrey had asked Fleming to take a look at the dashing double agent’s activities. Fleming had met the man who would later inspire him to create the character of Bond in his series of spy novels.

  8. Another great video! I would love to see you walk the Camino! Just an idea, but how about having viewers sponsor one day of the Camino for each of you. For example, 1 day, 1 person would be $50. I would totally sponsor a day!
