THE SOPHISTICATED ATLANTIC LIFESTYLE

LISBON & CASCAIS

WHERE LIFE FLOWS BETWEEN THE CITY AND THE SEA

THE ESSENCE OF THE CAPITAL COAST

Lisbon and Cascais reveal two sides of Portugal’s sophistication — the vibrant rhythm of the capital and the serene elegance of the coast.

LISBON, THE CITY OF SEVEN HILLS

With around 290 days of sunshine per year, the Portuguese capital is known for its unique light, which has inspired artists from all over the world. Known as the “City of Seven Hills,” Lisbon offers incredible viewpoints with breathtaking views—and a great excuse to hop on the nostalgic Tram 28, which travels through historic neighborhoods and reveals the soul of the city.

AND JUST BEYOND, CASCAIS.

Cascais embodies Portugal’s refined coastal lifestyle.

Once a royal summer retreat, it still carries an air of quiet elegance.

Beaches, golf courses and the Atlantic horizon define a life of balance, privacy and understated luxury.

Here, every moment feels timeless: facades covered in the traditional tiles, the scent of sea breeze, and sunsets that bathe the Atlantic in gold. Between the city and the sea lies a way of life defined by light, culture, and charm.

EXCLUSIVE RECOMMENDATIONS

Lisbon’s food scene is deeply rooted in tradition, but far from stuck in the past. It’s a city where heritage and creativity sit comfortably at the same table.

Lisbon’s gastronomy reflects tradition and creativity, while Cascais enchants with its sophisticated dining and refined culinary atmosphere.

Would you like an insider Portuguese tip? Set up MB Way to pay by phone, learn how Via Verde works, and understand why we use a NIF.

MB Way

Once you open a Portuguese bank account, setting up MB Way is highly recommended. It’s the most common way to make everyday payments — from splitting restaurant bills to online shopping — using just your phone number.

Via Verde

If you plan to drive regularly, Via Verde makes life easier. The device allows automatic payment of motorway tolls and parking, saving time and avoiding queues.

NIF (Tax Number)

Obtaining a NIF is one of the first steps when relocating to Portugal. It’s required for signing a lease, opening a bank account, setting up utilities and is frequently requested for many formal transactions. You will often be asked at shops or restaurants if you would like to include your NIF on the invoice (“Quer contribuinte?”). Providing it can be useful, as certain expenses, such as healthcare, education, restaurants, gyms or car repairs — may count towards annual tax deductions if you become a Portuguese tax resident.

SUMMER TIP

Morning light by the river at MAAT.

LIVING THE BEACH

To live on this coast is to embrace a “sunriseto-sunset” outdoor culture where the Atlantic is both your playground and your gym. From the aristocratic charm of Estoril to the wild dunes of Cascais, here is how to master the local lifestyle:

THE LIFESTYLE PULSE

The “Marginal” coastal road and the Paredão (seawall) act as the region’s social and fitness spine, connecting Oeiras, Estoril, and Cascais through a continuous flow of runners, cyclists, and walkers.

LOCAL TIPS

The Wind Factor: If it’s too windy, head to the more sheltered beaches in Estoril or Oeiras (like Praia da Torre) for a calmer day.

The Commute: The train line is your best friend for “beach hopping”—most surf breaks and beach tennis courts are within a 5-minute walk from a station.

The “Marginal” Flow: To avoid traffic, use the train. It stops right at the sand in Santo Amaro de Oeiras, Carcavelos, and Tamariz, making “beach hopping” effortless.

SPORTS & SURF GUIDE

Beach Tennis: The fastest-growing social sport in the area. Key spots include Praia da Conceição (Cascais) for a vibrant community vibe and dedicated courts at clubs like Guincho Tennis and Carcavelos.

Surfing & Wind Sports: Carcavelos is the ultimate surf classroom and competitive hub, while Guincho remains the wild frontier for prolevel surfing, windsurfing, and kitesurfing.

Tennis & Padel: A deep-rooted local tradition. The Estoril Tennis Club (home to the Estoril Open) and Quinta da Marinha Racket Club offer premier clay and padel facilities.

Golf: World-class “Green Coast” experiences at Oitavos Dunes and Quinta da Marinha, blending technical play with Atlantic views.

Sailing: Centered at the Cascais Marina, a world-renowned venue for international regattas and elite nautical training.
