Praia do Guincho, located directly after Cascais when heading out from
Lisbon, is one of the best spots in Portugal for surfing and wind
surfing. Portugal frequently holds national and international
competitions at this location. July and August are the best months for
these sports, but the wind begins to blow in May and goes on until
October.
The south side of the beach
is usually chosen by surfers and the north side has much better
conditions for wind surfers.
On this beach you'll find plenty of summertime entertainment, brought
to you in the bars and restaurants sitting along the coast.
From here we strongly advise you to go on to Cape Roca, the most
western point on mainland Europe and then on to charming Sintra, home
of wonderful palaces and gardens.
