Why go?
Lying less than 20 miles from Lisbon, the nation's capital, there is plenty to do and see during holidays in Estoril...
Fly into Lisbon International Airport (LIS) and hire a car to get your adventure under way in this lovely corner of Portugal.
The fascinating architecture and lively culture of this resort mesh perfectly to create an intriguing and beguiling break in the sunshine. The city enjoys year-round warm weather and has become a popular choice for Brits looking to boost their vitamin D intake during winter.
The busy coastal road winds through Estoril, making reaching the resort a doddle; you might also remember the resort's name as it was home to the Portuguese Grand Prix until the late 1990s. Though F1 drivers don't screech around the track these days, motor sports events are still held at the venue.
Lounge on the beautiful sun-drenched beaches of Estoril, play on the city's fantastic golf course or find shade under the trees of Parque do Estoril, which sits just above the beaches. When you've had enough of the great outdoors, head inside for the thrills of Casino Estoril. Reputed to be a meeting place for spies and royals during the second world war, it’s said that this grand gambling establishment inspired James Bond's adventures in Casino Royale.
Stepping back outside into the sunshine, adjust your eyes and then have them pop at the sight of some of the most beautiful buildings in Portugal. Let the architecture stir your senses as you get an idea of the long history of this special part of the country.
Staying in Estoril allows for easy exploration of the surrounding areas too. A sightseeing day trip to Lisbon is a must, while the magnificent beaches of Cascais are a little further along the coast. Many holidaymakers also check out the castles, palaces and monastery of the hilltop town of Sintra.
